Creating Security Policies

To create a new security policy:

1. Select Create New and enter a name for your policy.

2. For L3 Inbound/Application topology, select the policy type from the Provider list.

3. Click Add to create a new security policy rule.

4. Select a condition from the first dropdown list for which you want to configure the rule. Specify conditions, match type (match any/match all), operators (is ) or (is not) that compares or negates the selected value, and choose the action (Reject/Allow/Abort/Redirect) for that traffic. Select a service chain and specify if SSL proxy traffic will be intercepted or bypassed.

   • If you select the Allow option, select a service chain and specify if SSL proxy traffic will be intercepted or bypassed.

   • If you select the Redirect option, specify the remote URL to which you want to redirect the traffic. The traffic is intercepted and redirected to the specified URL.

   Use the + sign to add additional conditions and the x sign to remove any unwanted rule condition.

   Note: Refer the Using Conditions in Rules section for recommended tips.

5. Select Proxy Connect if you want to add an upstream explicit proxy to your security rule chaining. You can add multiple proxy devices, or pool members, as necessary.

6. Click Save Draft or Save & Next before you leave the screen.
