Add or Edit FlexConfig Dialog Box
Use the Add or Edit FlexConfig dialog box to create or edit FlexConfig policy objects. FlexConfig
objects are small programs that allow you to add configuration commands before or after the
configurations generated from Security Manager policies, so that you can extend the abilities of the
product to configure your devices. You use these policy objects in FlexConfig device or shared policies.
Before creating FlexConfig policy objects, read the sections in Understanding FlexConfig Policies and
Policy Objects, page 7-2.
Navigation Path
Select Manage > Policy Objects, then select FlexConfigs from the Object Type Selector. Right-click
inside the work area and select New Object or right-click a row and select Edit Object.
