Managing Policies

Scenarios

Policies record the enterprises routers that have been added to a central network to allow you to better manage your network. You can apply policies of any version.

Constraints

  • A central network can only have one policy. If you apply another policy for this central network, the policy that was previously applied will be automatically cancelled.

  • A policy that is being applied or cancelled cannot be deleted.
