Changing the priority of an intrusion detection policy

In the Attack, Scan, or Traffic Regulation Policies views, you can change the priority of an intrusion detection policy. However, you cannot change the priority of an intrusion detection policy in the All Policies view.

The order that the policies are listed determines the priority of the policies. The policies are processed in this order when intrusion events occur for the IP addresses and ports defined in the policies.
To change the priority of an intrusion detection policy, perform these steps:
  1. In the Intrusion detection policies table, select the Attack Policies, Scan Policies, or Traffic Regulation Policies view.
  2. Select one or more intrusion detection policies:
    • Click Move Up from the Actions menu to increase the priority.
    • Click Move Down from the Actions menu to decrease the priority.
