Managing Appliance Pages

You configure appliance configuration settings in the Appliances page: Appliance Pages tab. Appliance configuration settings are organized into appliance configuration pages so that you can easily configure common features, such as host settings and in-path rules.

Each appliance configuration page lists the applicable appliances and supported software on the right side of the page. You must pay close attention to the supported software versions—if the feature is not supported by the software you are running your configuration changes cannot be pushed to the appliance. For details about feature restrictions for appliances, see Legacy Policy Push Restrictions.

Changes made to the appliance configuration pages are not applied until you have pushed the configuration to the appliance. For detailed information about pushing configuration settings to appliances, see Pushing Policies to Selected Appliances or Appliance Groups.
