Devices to be Auto Updated
The selector includes the IPS devices that have local signature policies
and the shared signature policies that are defined in Security Manager.
The columns in the selector indicate whether a local device policy or a
shared policy is selected for these types of updates:
• Signature—For auto updating the signature update level.
• Minor—For minor updates and service packs.
• S.P.—For service pack updates.
For shared policies, a partial grey checked box indicates that some, but
not all, of the devices that use the policy are selected. If you change the
devices assigned to the shared policy between automatic update events,
the shared policy is grayed out, and only the old assignments are shown
on this page. After the update runs, the assignment list will be
synchronized with the shared policy device assignments. To update the
device list proactively prior to the next auto update run, select the
policy and edit it (to select auto update settings), and the device
assignment list will be corrected.
Note Also for shared policies: You can select only the shared policy
assigned to the default virtual sensor (vs0). If you attempt to
select the shared policy for a different virtual sensor, your
changes will not be applied, and you will not receive an error
message.
Use the Type field to toggle between viewing local and shared policies.
Changing the view does not change your auto update selections.
To select a local or shared policy for auto update, select it in the selector
and click the Edit Row button below the selector. This opens the Edit
Auto Update Settings dialog box, where you can select the types of
updates for the policy. When you select any type of auto update for a
policy, the affected devices are listed in the Devices to be Auto
Updated list to the right of the selector.
Save button Saves your changes.
Reset button Resets changes to the last saved values.
Restore Defaults button Resets values to Security Manager defaults.
