Inheriting Access Control Policy Settings from the Base Policy

A new child policy inherits many settings from its base policy. If these settings are unlocked in the base policy, you can override them.

If you later reinherit the settings from the base policy, the system displays the base policy's settings and dims the controls. However, the system saves the overrides you made, and restores them if you disable inheritance again.

Procedure

Step 1

In the access control policy editor, click Security Intelligence, or select HTTP Responses or Advanced Settings from the More drop-down arrow at the end of the packet flow line

Step 2

Check the Inherit from base policy check box for each setting you want to inherit.

If the controls are dimmed, settings are inherited from an ancestor policy, or you do not have permission to modify the configuration.

Step 3

Click Save.
