Creating the SSL VPN Policies
SSL VPN Policies give configured SSL users access to services and network
resources. A policy applies to a specific network resource, IP address, or IP
address range on the LAN, or to other SSL VPN services that are supported by the
security appliance.
By default, a global PERMIT policy (not displayed) is preconfigured over all
addresses and over all services and ports.
You can create user, group, and global policies. Policies are applied based on the
following levels of precedence:
User-level policies take precedence over Group-level policies.
Group-level policies take precedence over Global policies.
