Comparing policies
You must have Administrative or Web Application Security role access privileges to compare policies. You must have more than one Web Application Security policy.
Create a Web Application Security policy comparison audit to identify the security setting differences among your policies. You can use this comparison to adjust security settings, specially those that are currently in staging or monitoring.
The policy comparison will create an audit for any two security policies configured on BIG-IQ, regardless of the policy's deployment status.
- Go to.

- ClickMoreand selectCompare Policies.The screen displays an audit of the differences in settings, by configuration section, and the number of differences in each section.
- To export the results of the audit to PDF, clickExportand selectPrint Preview....The system will prompt you to confirm your selection. To proceed, clickOK.
- To run a comparison for another policy, or pair of policies, select a policy from the list at the table header and clickRun.
You can now use the results of the policy comparison audit to adjust your security policies, as required.
