Additional notes

• Rules can defined as any of the following:

  • Subnets

  • Single IP address

  • IP address ranges

  • Wildcard masks

  • Child rules (must be defined first)

  • Port and protocol

• For an application definition to be valid, it must include at least one port rule and one rule of any other type. The import file may include applications that do not meet this requirement, but they will not be considered a defined application by Plixer Scrutinizer.

• Passing the reset option will delete all existing application definitions/rules before the import operation.

• If the reset option is not used, imported rules will be added to the specified application if it already exists.

• Each import operation supports up to 100,000 application rule definitions.
