Copying a security rule

To copy a rule:

1. In the main menu of the Open Single Management Platform Console, go to the Application & Services → NGFW section.

   This opens the Policy tab.

2. In the Firewall section, select Security rules.

   This opens the table of security rules.

3. Do one of the following:
   • Clone and insert above gives the new rule a higher priority than the rule that you are copying.
   • Clone and insert below gives the new rule a lower priority than the rule that you are copying.

   For details about rule priorities, see the section on changing the priority of rules.

   • A new security rule is added to the table with the name <rule name>_copy_<N>, where <rule name> is the name of the security rule that was copied, and <N> is a random number. This new security rule is a copy of the selected rule with the same settings.
4. If necessary, edit the settings of the new security rule as necessary.
5. Apply the OSMP policy changes by clicking the Commit and push button.

The copied security rule does not apply to sessions established before this security rule was copied.
