Override settings in the global Snort configuration for individual Secure SD-WAN Engines

All Secure SD-WAN Engines for which Snort inspection is enabled use the global Snort configuration by default. If you do not want to override settings in the global Snort configuration, it is not necessary to import a Snort configuration file for an individual Secure SD-WAN Engine.

All Secure SD-WAN Engines for which Snort inspection is enabled use the global Snort configuration by default. If you do not want to override settings in the global Snort configuration, it is not necessary to import a Snort configuration file for an individual Secure SD-WAN Engine. Settings in the Snort configuration .zip file for an individual Secure SD-WAN Engine are combined with the settings in the global Snort configuration .zip file. If any configuration files in a Snort configuration .zip file for an individual Secure SD-WAN Engine have the same files name and paths as configuration files in the global Snort configuration .zip file, the overlapping files in the global Snort configuration .zip file are ignored. |
