Adding Action Objects

SonicOS has a number of default action objects as described in Default Action Objects. These action objects cannot be modified or deleted.

If you do not want to use one of the default actions, you can configure an Action Object. You can customize a configurable action with text or a URL for the Action types listed in Action Types for Custom Action Objects. The default action objects along with custom action objects are available for selection while adding an App Rule policy on POLICY | Rules and Policies > App Rules > Add App Rule page.
