Conref - Device Context Segments Task Steps
Reusable task steps for Device Context Segments documentation, shared between the
Advanced Device-ID book and the Device Security administration book.
In
Device Security, select .
Review the existing network segments and the firewalls assigned to each
one so that you can recreate the equivalent assignments on your firewalls.
Initiate the migration to device context segments and confirm when
Device Security prompts you.
After you confirm, existing segments appear as Panorama-managed on
the Network Segments page, and any new device context segments must
be added through your firewall. You can still create network segments
in Device Security.
Choose whether to preserve or clean up the devices that
Device Security
already learned from the affected firewalls in the migrated segments.
If a firewall is removed from a segment during your migration
configuration, Device Security prompts you to clean up the segment.
If you clean up the data, then Device Security relearns
devices when it sees the device traffic under the new segment assignments.
If you don't clean up the segment, then Device Security preserves the
devices previously learned by the segment and continues to display them
in the Assets Inventory. Select
View Detail and confirm the
Cleanup Network Segment dialog to remove devices
previously discovered by the reassigned firewalls.
