Configuration: Network Policies

You can create various types of network policies to protect your network from threats and disruptions. It helps you optimize network resource allocation and manage your network policies to prioritize traffic and configure application classifications.

Feature Highlights

Network policies allow you to optimize network resource allocation, prioritize traffic, and configure application classifications.
  • Prioritize business-critical traffic and latency-sensitive applications such as VoIP and video.
  • Create rules that force traffic to use fast path Layer-4 processing instead of App-ID for Layer-7 inspection. Ideal for custom applications between known IP addresses., improving performance.
  • Policy Based Forwarding
    Direct specific traffic along an alternative path different from the routing table's next hop.
  • NAT
    Allows you to not disclose the real IP addresses of hosts that need access to public addresses and to manage traffic by performing port forwarding. You can use NAT to solve network design challenges, enabling networks with identical IP subnets to communicate with each other.
  • SD-WAN Policy
    Use application(s) and/or service specific policies to select the preferred path based on latency, jitter, and packet loss. Automatically reroute traffic when the preferred path degrades.
