Field Reference
Import Rules Wizard—Preview Page
Use the Preview page of the Import Rules wizard to view the rules and objects that will be imported if
you click Finish.
This preview is read-only; you cannot edit the rules or objects. If the rules or objects are not exactly what
you want, you can click Finish to add the rules and objects, and then edit them from the access rules
page. For example, you cannot import rule expiration dates, because those dates have meaning only in
Security Manager.
The tabs on this dialog box appear only if the data you are importing includes items to be displayed on
the tab.
Tip If your CLI refers to an object that does not exist, such as a time range, the object is not included in the
rule. You can either go back and add the CLI for the object, or you can click Finish, create the object
yourself, and edit the rule.
