Select the General tab to configure a name and description for the DoS Protection policy. You can also configure a tag to allow you to sort or filter policies when many policies exist.

Field	Description
Name	Enter a name to identify the DoS Protection policy rule. The name is case-sensitive and can have up to 63 characters, which can be letters, numbers, spaces, hyphens, and underscores. The name must be unique on a firewall and, on Panorama, unique within its device group and any ancestor or descendant device groups.
Description	Enter a description for the rule (up to 1024 characters).
Tags	If you want to tag the policy, Add and specify the tag. A policy tag is a keyword or phrase that allows you to sort or filter policies. A tag is useful when you have defined many policies and want to view those that are tagged with a particular keyword. For example, you may want to tag certain security policies with Inbound to DMZ, decryption policies with the words Decrypt or No-decrypt, or use the name of a specific data center for policies associated with that location.
Group Rules by Tag	Enter a tag with which to group similar policy rules. The group tag allows you to view your policy rule base based on these tags. You can group rules based on a Tag.
Audit Comment	Enter a comment to audit the creation or editing of the policy rule. The audit comment is case-sensitive and can have up to 256 characters, which can be letters, numbers, spaces, hyphens, and underscores.
Audit Comment Archive	View previous Audit Comments for the policy rule. You can export the Audit Comment Archive in CSV format.
