Configuring Application List Objects

This section describes how to create an Application List Object, which can be used by App Rules policies or App Based Route policies in the same way as an Application List Object created in the Create Match Object dialog.

For detailed information about application list object types including information about the Category screen, see About Application List Objects.

To configure an application list object

1. Navigate to Object > Match Objects.

2. At the top of the page, click Add Applications option. The Create Match Object dialog opens with the Application screen displayed.

   

   You can control which applications are displayed by selecting one or more application categories, threat levels, and technologies. When the application list is reduced to a list that is focused on your preferences, you can select the individual applications for your filter.

3. In the Search field, optionally type in part of an application name to search for applications with that key word in their names.
4. In the Category pane, select the checkboxes for one or more application categories.
5. In the Technology pane, select the checkboxes for one or more technologies.
6. In the Risk pane, select the checkboxes for one or more risk levels.
7. In the Orientation pane, select the checkboxes for one or more orientation type.
8. In the Direction pane, select the checkboxes for one or more type of direction.

9. Click the plus sign next to each application you want to add to your filter object. To display a description of the application, click the triangle in the Name column. As you select the applications for your filter, the plus sign icon becomes a green checkmark icon and the selected applications appear in the Selected pane on the right. You can edit the list in this field by deleting individual items or by clicking the Delete icon to delete all items.

   

10. When finished selecting the applications to include, clear the Auto-generate match object name checkbox and then type in a name for the object in the Match Object Name field. Alternatively, you can simply use the auto-generated name.
11. Click Save. You will see the object name listed on the Object > Match Objects page with an object type of Application List. This object can then be selected when creating an App Rules policy or an App Based Route policy.
