Manage policies
Add, modify or delete Supplicant EasyConnect policies used to configure Supplicants on connecting hosts.
|
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.
The best way to use a Catch All profile is to create a general policy with that profile and place it last in the list of policies.
