Manage policies
Add, modify or delete Supplicant EasyConnect Policies used to configure Supplicants on connecting hosts. See Navigation and Filters for information on common navigation tools and data filters.
If the user/host does not match any policy, no Supplicant Configuration is provided. |
If you create a User/Host Profile with fields Where (Location) set to Any, Who/What by Group set to Any, Who/What by Attribute left blank and When set to always, it matches ALL users and hosts. This is essentially a Catch All profile. If this User/Host Profile is used in a policy, all policies below that policy are ignored when assigning a policy to a user or a host. To highlight this, policies below the policy with the catch all profile are grayed out and have a line through the data. |
