Device Profile Policy
View policy rule sets and ACL rule sets generated from
IoT Security recommendations.
To access the Policy page of a device profile, select
Profiles
>
profile_name
> Policy
.
This page lists all the policy sets that were created for the
device profile, when they were last updated, whether they were activated,
and if so, when. When there are no policy sets for a device profile,
the Policy page is empty.
If you create a policy set for a device profile and save it without
activating it, it’s added to the Policy page. In this case, there’s
a dash in the Last Set as Active column.
After you activate a policy set, it’s marked with an Active label
and IoT Security adds a timestamp in the Last Set as Active column.
If you later deactivate the policy set, the Active label is removed.
However, the timestamp in the Last Set as Active column remains
indicating that it once was active and when.
New behaviors are behaviors discovered on the network after the
active policy set was activated or last updated. Unexpected behaviors
are behaviors that were explicitly not permitted when the policy
set was activated or last updated but have since appeared on the
network, which means the enforcement implemented in a next-generation
firewall is missing them. If IoT Security detects new or unexpected
behaviors on the network after some time has passed since the policy
set was first activated, it lists them on the Profile > Policy page and
presents you with an opportunity to modify the active policy set
to account for these behaviors.
When integrating IoT Security with Cisco ISE, you can send ISE
automatically generated ACL rule sets for IoT devices. For information
about providing ISE with access control lists for IoT devices, see Apply Access Control Lists through
Cisco ISE.
