Interface pair view split for policies

Interface pair view split for policies

There are 2 modes to show policies in FortiOS: "Interface Pair View" and "By Sequence".

"Interface Pair View" categorizes policies by their source and destination interfaces, so it is more straight forward to manage.

However, "Interface Pair View" can only be used when all the policies contain only one interface in both source and destination interface fields. If there are multiple interfaces in a converted policy, "Interface Pair View Split" can split the policy into equivalent policies with single interface.

Please follow the steps below to split the policies:
  1. Go to the tuning page of policies.
  2. Click Interface Pair View Check to list all the policies which have multiple source or destination interfaces. (Optional)
  3. Select the policies you want to split and right click.
  4. Click Interface Pair View Split.
  5. The selected policies will be split.
