This invention provides a tool for generating ACLs in an environment where a set of network elements or servers (e.g. web servers, IPTV servers, application servers . . . ) need to be secure. The tool also performs ACL validation to ensure that the filtering rules are correct before they are deployed in a network. The system enables a central view of the security configuration concerning the filtering rules in the network. Furthermore, it allows end-to-end configuration of the ACL rules, from the definition of the flows between the servers to the deployment of the rules on the network elements.
