Associating a Policy List with an IP Interface

For a policy list to become active, it must be associated with either an IP interface or a profile. You can associate up to three policy lists with an IP interface at a time by specifying Input, Output, or Secondary-Input. You can make this association when you configure an IP interface.

To associate a policy list with an IP interface:

1. From the Device-wide Explorer, under the IP folder, double-click IP Interfaces.

All IP interfaces configured on this device are listed in the list area.

2. Select an IP interface from the list, right-click, and click Configure.

The IP Intf Configuration tab appears in the work area.

3. In the Policy Information group box, in the row where you want to specify the policy list, click to the right of the Policy Name column.

For example, if you select Output, the Associate Policy for Output dialog box appears.

4. Click a policy list name.
5. (Optional) View the policy list attributes by clicking the View button.
6. Click OK.

The policy name appears in the text box to the right of the Type (Input, Output, or Secondary-Input) on the IP Intf Configuration tab.

7. (Optional) Repeat Steps 4-6 for the two remaining types.
8. (Optional) Enable statistics by selecting the Statistics Enabled box to the right of each policy name.
9. Click Save.

The policy list(s) are associated with the IP interface you selected.
