Incorporate into a Policy
When the single rule that was found is to be added to an existing policy, the copy/paste function is
probably most efficient. Use the following procedure.
1
Right-click the now selected rule and choose
Copy
from the resulting menu. Close the current (or
source) policy and open the policy into which the rule is to be copied (target). Right-click an existing
rule and choose the desired
Paste
command from the menu.
NOTE
The Copy/Paste function can be used only with an already populated policy.
When one or more rules that were found are to be the beginning of a new policy, the export function
simplifies the process. Use the following procedure.
1
In this example, mark the rule either from the
Search Policy
box, before closing, or from the right-
click menu. From the menu, choose
File > Export To... > Policy File
. In the
Save
box that opens, type
a new file name (in this case
ExportTest.pol
) and click
Save
. When the export is successful, a
Validation
Notice
is displayed confirming the export. Click
OK
. From the menu, choose
File > Open
> Local
and select ExportTest.pol to see the new policy with the rule, ACL_UDP. Additional rules
can be added either by creating new ones, using copy/paste from other policies, importing and/or
exporting.
2
When the new policy is complete, it can be validated. From the menu, choose
Policy > Validate &
Check.
The EPM checks the policy and validates it or returns notice of problems.
3
Save the new policy to a switch when it is complete.
4 Exit
the EPM.
