App Control Advanced Policy Creation
The configuration method on the Firewall > App Control Advanced page allows granular control
of specific categories, applications, or signatures. This includes granular logging control,
granular inclusion and exclusion of users, groups, or IP address ranges, and schedule
configuration. The settings here are global policies and independent from any custom App
Rules policy. The Firewall > App Control Advanced page is shown below.
You can configure the following settings on this page:
Select a category, an application, or a signature.
Select blocking, logging, or both as the action.
Specify users, groups, or IP address ranges to include in or exclude from the action.
Set a schedule for enforcing the controls.
While these application control settings are independent from App Rules policies, you can also
create application match objects for any of the categories, applications, or signatures available
here or on the Firewall > Match Objects page, and use those match objects in an App Rules
policy. This allows you to use the wide array of actions and other configuration settings
available with Application Control. See the “Application List Objects” section on page 640 for
more information about this policy-based user interface for application control.
