MMS protection profiles

An MMS protection profile is a group of settings that you can apply to an MMS session matched by a security policy.

MMS protection profiles are easy to configure and can be used by more than one security policy. You can configure a single MMS protection profile for the different traffic types handled by a set of security policies that require identical protection levels and types. This eliminates the need to repeatedly configure those same MMS protection profile settings for each individual security policy.

For example, while traffic between trusted and untrusted networks might need strict protection, traffic between trusted internal addresses might need only moderate protection. You would configure two separate MMS protection profiles to provide the different levels of protection: one for traffic between trusted networks, and one for traffic between trusted and untrusted networks.

Once you have configured the MMS Protection Profile, you need to add it to a security policy to apply the profile to MMS traffic.
