Purpose
The goal of this is to give trusted people on campus and within OIT, who request a lot of firewall rule changes or need to audit rules for their group, read-only access to firewall rules in a secure manner. People often request access so they can audit their rules without a manual request of the security team, and want to be more knowledgeable of existing rules when they request new changes from the security team. This will replace the insecure practice of emailing firewall rule configurations or people saving them locally. However in most cases they still have to know how to interpret a raw Cisco ASA configuration.
