Trigger ACL utilities should warn you when ACL support is globally disabled.

[jathanism]

Utils like load_acl and especially acl can be flipping confusing when you're trying to use them but settings.WITH_ACLS=False. There should be a visual warning or outright failure to utilize them when this feature is disabled.

Something like:

$ acl -a snmp.acl arista-sw1
ACL support disabled. To enable it change WITH_ACLS=True in /etc/trigger/settings.py.
