Creating a Policy List

Policy lists allow you to create, modify, and delete policy rules. Policy list names can be set only during creation. You can modify parameters after rules are added.

If a policy list is created without rules, the Default Filter Rule is automatically created on the policy list. Once you add a second rule, the Default Filter Rule is removed from the table. If you remove the last rule in the policy list, an entry is added for the Default Filter Rule. You cannot edit the fields in the Default Filter Rule, nor can you remove the Default Filter Rule from the policy list.

To create a policy list:

1. From the Device-wide Explorer, under Policy Management, click Policy Lists.
2. Right-click, select Create, and click Policy List.

The Create Policy List dialog box appears.

3. Name the policy list. See Table 12.
