17.4 Assigning Policies
When you assign policies, you specify device assignments and assignment schedules for an existing
policy.
When you created policies, midway through the Create Policy Wizard, you were given the choice of
clicking Finish or Next.
If you clicked Finish, the policy was created without assigning devices to it, specifying assignment
schedules, or specifying groups for the policy. Before the policy can be applied to assigned devices,
you must complete the following steps. If you clicked Next, you have already performed the
following procedure as part of the policy-creation process.
