ACLs are useful for implementing permission requirements that differ from the natural organizational hierarchy of users and groups. An ACL provides a way to set different permissions for specific named users or named groups, not only the file's owner and the file's group. -By default, support for ACLs is disabled, and the NameNode disallows creation of ACLs.

To disable support for ACLs, set `dfs.namenode.acls.enabled` to false in the NameNode configuration. An ACL consists of a set of ACL entries. Each ACL entry names a specific user or group and grants or denies read, write and execute permissions for that specific user or group. For example:
