Warning - Partial VPN Deployment Dialog Box
Use the Partial VPN Deployment dialog box to select other devices that are part of a VPN to which you
are deploying configurations.

devices in the VPN. If you select a subset of devices and try to deploy to only those devices, this dialog
box appears so that you can select the other devices that are part of the VPN.
Navigation Path
• Non-Workflow mode—If you select a subset of devices in a VPN in the Deploy Saved Changes
dialog box, this dialog box appears when you click Deploy.
• Workflow mode—If you select a subset of devices in a VPN in the Create or Edit a Job dialog box,
this dialog box appears when you click OK.
