    Guideline

    Name

    Enter a unique name for the IPS profile that is a string of maximum 127 characters without spaces.

    The string can contain alphanumeric characters and special characters, such as colons, hyphens, periods, and underscores.

    Description

    Enter a description of maximum 255 characters for the IPS profile.
  4. Click OK.

    The IPS Profiles page opens with a confirmation message indicating that the IPS profile is created.

After you create an IPS profile, you can add one or more IPS or exempt rules to the profile, and use the IPS profile in a firewall policy. You must deploy the firewall policy for the changes to take effect on the device.

Manage IPS Profiles

  • Edit—Select the profile, and then click the pencil icon (Blue pencil icon indicating edit functionality.). You can edit only customized IPS profiles, and not predefined (system-generated) profiles. You cannot modify the IPS profile name.

    If the IPS profile is referenced in a firewall policy intent, then the firewall policy is marked for deployment. You must deploy the firewall policy for the changes to take effect on the device.

  • Clone—Select the profile, and then click More > Clone. You can clone predefined or customized IPS profiles and modify the parameters.

  • Delete—Select the profile, and then click the trash can icon (Blue trash can icon representing delete or remove function.). You can delete only customized IPS profiles that are not referenced in a firewall policy intent. You cannot delete predefined (system-generated) IPS profiles.
