Definition

When checking to determine whether a rule can be used for a certificate, the system checks all rules sequentially by increasing index number. The first usable rule is used to map the certificate to a user. All subsequent rules are disregarded.

If multiple rules exist for a Certification Authority (CA) and can be used, the order of the rules is decisive for user mapping.
