To create a Network Rule

1. Go to  (CONFIGURE) > Policies.
2. In the policies panel, click Content.
3. In the left panel, click Content Library.
4. Click the Network Rule tab.
5. In the network rule panel, click + Create Rule to add a network rule.
6. In the New Create Rule panel, do the following:
   • Enter a unique rule name. If the name of that network rule is the same as an existing rule, an error message is displayed.

   • Enter the rule value. This is the value written to the alert meta. While creating a new rule, the rule value is defaulted with the rule name. However, you can modify the same.

     Note: This field is applicable only for 12.1.1 version.

   • Enter the condition for the rule. You can apply two types of conditions for the rule.
     • Normal mode:
       • It gives suggestions for supported metas (ip, host and so on) and operators (“=”, “Not Equal To”, “Contains”, “Exists” and so on).
       • The entered condition will be enclosed in a ‘Pill’. When you enter multiple conditions, the conditions are automatically joined by an ‘AND’ operator. On clicking the ‘AND’ operator, you can toggle between ‘AND’ and ‘OR’ operators.

     • Advanced: You can customize the conditions as a free form text.

   Note: The medium is selected as Packet by default, and it cannot be modified.

   • Select the session options to be applied for the rule.
   • Click Cancel to cancel the operation.
