Let us learn more about on editing application policy
network rules.
When the IPsec Tunnels are active from the
site to the Prisma Access Regions, the next step is to modify policies
to send traffic down these tunnels. To begin this process, we must
modify Service and Data center groups and configure these groups
in policy.
When making policy configurations, remember that
the ION devices makes intelligent per-app selections using the network
policies to chain multiple different path options together in Active-Active
and Active-Backup modes.
Example:
- Application A:
Take Standard VPN direct to Prisma Access.
- Application B: Take Standard VPN direct to Prisma Access, Backup
to Direct Internet.
- Application C: Use only Direct Internet.
The Prisma
SD-WAN secure Application Fabric (AppFabric) enables granular controls
for virtually unlimited number of policy permutations down to the
sub-application level. Here are some of the most common examples
of how a traffic policy can be configured per-application:
- Send
all internet-bound traffic from a set of branches to Prisma Access. (Blanket
Suspect list)
- Send all internet traffic direct to the internet except for
certain applications needing additional inspection or security.
(Suspect list - Safelist)
- Send all internet-bound traffic from a set of branches to Prisma
Access except for specific known applications. (Suspect list - Safelist).
