A security policy determines how your managed devices handle your network traffic. To
display previously configured security policies, select Configure > Policy Manager and
double-click Policies. When you edit a security policy, the name of that security policy
appears in bold in the main navigation tree.
Using the Network and Security Manager (NSM) UI, you can configure rules in up to ten
rulebases (Zone, Global, Multicast, IDP, Exempt, APE, Backdoor Detection, SYN Protector,
Traffic Anomalies, and Network Honeypot) for each security policy.
NOTE: In the ScreenOS WebUI and CLI, a security policy is a single statement
that defines a source, destination, zone, direction, and service. In NSM, those
same statements are known as rules, and a security policy is a collection of
rules.
After you create a security policy by building rules in one or more rulebases, you can assign
that policy to specific devices. For information about assigning a policy to a device, see
"Assigning a Security Policy to a Device" on page 509.
By default, each rulebase displays a subset of available columns for each rule. This mode,
known as Compact Mode, contains columns in which you can configure typical rule
parameters. To see all columns for the rulebase, change the mode of the security policy
to Expanded: From the menu bar, select View > Show Expanded Mode. You can set a
different mode for each security policy. You can also create Custom Mode views based
on the columns shown in the Compact Mode or Expanded Mode view.
