Policy & Objects
 
Policy & Objects
The Policy & Objects tab enables you to manage and configure the devices that are managed by the FortiManager unit. This includes the basic network settings to connect the device to the corporate network, antivirus definitions, intrusion protection signatures, access rules, and managing and updating firmware for the devices.
 
If the administrator account you logged on with does not have the appropriate privileges, you will not be able to edit or delete settings, or apply any changes. Instead you are limited to browsing. To modify these settings, see “Profile”.
Figure 182: ADOM Level Policy & Objects
In FortiManager v5.0 Patch Release 5 or earlier, if workspace is enabled, an ADOM must be locked before any changes can made to policy packages or objects. See “Concurrent ADOM access” for information on enabling or disabling workspace.
In FortiManager v5.0 Patch Release 6 or later, if workspace is enabled, you can select to lock and edit the policy package in the right-click menu. You do not need to lock the ADOM first. The policy package lock status is displayed in the toolbar.
