Configuring Exception Application Actions

Use the following statements to configure policy actions that specify exceptions to a rule to identify the client application that is a destination for packets.

policies group name list name rule name exception-application name {
application-type application-type ;
description description ;
}

The type of action that you can create depends on the type of policy rule. See Policy Information Model.

  2. Specify the application type, such as HTTP for Web traffic.
      [edit policies group http-policy list http-list rule redirect exception-application my-http-application]
      user@host# set application-type http
