"There are five states that we place rules in when we create them, four of the states are assigned to policies. - Connectivity over Security (Connectivity) - Either in “alert” or “drop” - Balanced (Balanced) - Either in “alert” or “drop” - Security over Connectivity (Security) - Either in “alert” or “drop”"

My question is : How do I know which policy a given rule is in? The FAQ answer contains "when you aren’t using the policies".
I did not see any mention of policies in the User Manual.


look at the rules and you'll see a "meta" keyword... it will list the policies a rule is assigned to... not all rules will carry this information, though...
