You can create a simple security policy stack or an advanced security policy stack.
A simple security policy stack has only one security policy set. The security policy set has the same name as the security policy Stack. You can add security policy rules directly to Simple Security Policy Set Stacks. This simplifies the management of security policy stacks if you do not need to leverage the stacking capabilities.
An advanced security policy stack can accommodate a maximum of four policy sets and one default rule policy set. The policy sets in a security policy stack are ordered from left to right, with the left-most policy set designated as the highest priority. A site will evaluate policy sets within a stack based on the order of the policy sets.
