5.2 Adding a Policy Template

The policy templates are available in the Command Control console and importing any of these templates, will display the policy in the Command Control pane. You can add specific policies by selecting the required Policy template from the Command Control console. These templates help in defining the policies for a specific action that can be performed on a Host server. The policies are displayed in a hierarchical structure. To add a policy at a specific location, select the location, then select the required Policy template. You can also change the order of the policy. For more information about changing the order refer, Moving a Rule. By default the policies are disabled. The administrator can customize the policy as per the requirement and enable the policy when it is placed in the correct order in the hierarchy.

To add a specific policy template, perform the following:

  1. On the home page of the console, click Command Control.

  2. On the Command Control pane click Rules.

    If you want to add a rule under a parent rule then, select that specific rule.

  3. In the details pane, click Add Policy Template then, select the required policy from the drop-down list. For example, SSH Relay, RDP Relay, Oracle DB Session and so on.

    When adding a policy template, you can get the details of that policy in the description field when you import the policy.

  4. Click Import.

    A policy is created with the specified template. The status and the information about the policy is displayed under Status in the details pane.

NOTE:

  • By default the new policy is dimmed. In the details pane, after you modify the policy with the required changes, you can enable this policy by deselecting the Disable checkbox and then clicking Apply.

  • Single sample policy can be imported multiple times at any level in the hierarchy.
