The buttons and icons at the top of the page provide the following functions:
Each function is described in more detail in later sections of this chapter.
The Policies View
The Policies View lets you create, view, and modify the policies managed by the EPICenter Policy
Manager. The Policies View organizes information by policy—information related to devices is
presented relative to the currently selected policy.
New Lets you create new policy definitions. This button is available only in the Policies View. See
“Creating a New Policy” on page 488 .
Save Lets you add a new policy definition to the database, or replace a modified policy. This button
is available only in the Policies View. See
“Creating a New Policy” on page 488
Delete Removes the selected policy definition from the database. This button is available only in the
Policies View. See
“Deleting a Policy” on page 501 .
Reset Abandons all modifications you have made to a policy definition, and restores the last saved
definition for the selected policy to the fields displayed in the Policy description page. This
button is available only in the Policies View. See
“Resetting a Policy” on page 502 .
Auto A toggled-state button that indicates whether auto-configuration is enabled or disabled. When
auto-configuration is enabled, any access list or QoS changes made within the Policy Manager,
any changes made within the Grouping Manager or Inventory Manager that affect the endpoints
or scoping of a policy, or any changes on a device that affect access list or QoS settings on the
device, will cause an immediate reconfiguration of all enabled policies on the network devices.
Access-based Security policies will be automatically configured only if the Auto-configuration
mode is activated.
When auto-configuration is disabled device policy configuration occurs only when specifically
invoked using one the configure buttons (Config or Config All). See
“Configuring QoS Policies”
on page 505 for important information on using the Auto-configuration feature. If you are using
Access-based Security policies and auto-configuration is disabled, these policies have to be
configured each time a user logs in over the network.
Order Lets you change the precedence of your policies relative to one another. See “Configuring
Policy Precedence” on page 502 .
Cfg All Computes rules for your policies and configures them on all affected devices. See “Configuring
QoS Policies” on page 505 .
Config Computes the set of access list and QoS rules that affect the devices you select, and
configures them on those devices. You can select an individual device or a group, and all
policies that have those devices in their scope will be configured. This button is available only
in the ACL Viewer. See
“Configuring QoS Policies” on page 505 .
Profile Lets you modify the settings of the QoS profiles for a device or device port. See “Viewing and
Modifying QoS Profiles” on page 503 .
Status Shows the status of a configuration operation due to an automatic or directed configuration.
This icon is not functional, shows status only. See
“Configuring QoS Policies” on page 505 .
