Abstract
An access control list lockout prevention system includes a network. A first administrator Information Handling System (IHS) is coupled to the network. A networking device is communicatively connected to the first administrator IHS through the network. The networking device is configured to receive an access control list instruction from the first administrator IHS. The networking device then determines that at least one administrator IHS that is communicatively connected to the networking device will lose access to the networking device in response to execution of the access control list instruction. In response to determining that the at least one administrator IHS will lose access to the networking device in response to execution of the access control list instruction, the networking device provides a warning message for display on the first administrator IHS.
