Deleting a Policy Rule

Policy rules, including policy rules within a policy group, can be removed from an MPE device when they are no longer needed. Because the policy rule still resides in the CMP database, it can be redeployed at a later date if needed. If a policy rule is no longer needed, it can be deleted from the CMP database.
Note: Deleting a policy rule from the CMP database automatically removes the policy rule from all associated MPE devices.
To delete a policy rule:
  1. From the Policy Management section of the navigation pane, select Policy Library.

    The content tree displays a list of policy library groups; the initial group is ALL.

  2. From the content tree, select the ALL group.

    The Policy Administration page opens in the work area, displaying the list of defined policies.

  3. Delete the policy rule using one of the following methods:
    • From the work area, click (trash can icon), located to the right of the policy rule.
    • From the content tree, select the policy rule and click Delete.

    A confirmation message appears.

  4. Click OK.
The policy rule is deleted.
