Please provide Folders in GUI for clubbing policies

monavy — Thu, 07 Dec 2017 14:30:01 GMT

Please provide ability to create group or folders in GUI so that we can group or club inter-related policies. For eg. If I provision a new application and I need to create a few policies for that application, I can create a folder and create those policies in the folder. When I remove the application, I can delete the folder and all the related policies will be deleted.

Hello,

Folders are an interesting solution. You will need to submit your request via your SE. However in the mena time you can use tags to groups your rules together for easier reference. This option might get you something similar to what you are looking for?

Regards,

Hi @monavy

We can't process your request through the discussion forum

You'll need to reach out to your local sales team and have them create a Feature Request

hope this helps

@monavy,

I'm unsure of what the feature request ID is, but I know from talking with my SE that a future request for this already exists. You can have them add your vote towards that feature request so that it has a chance of making it further in the queue.

As @OtakarKlier already pointed out Tags are an amazing way of sorting everything, and it's already available on your firewall. Personally I make sure that all of my security rules are tagged with their source zone at the very least, then I'll create tags for things that I can logically group together. For example, I have a tag called "SfB" for all of my Skype for Business sequrity policies since we host our own enviroment.
