How to Set Specific Users Access
This section allows you to restrict the application policy to a specific set of users/IP addresses. All of the
detail descriptions for each item are provided in Section 7.1.4 above. The standard setting preconfigured
in the default settings is:
all sites available and accelerated for all users with all client types on any port.
NOTE: Authorization realms can be useful for testing because they provide a convenient means to stage
deployment of new application policy by limiting the users who can access the new application policy.
