Policy Tree Editor

When unlocked, the policy tree has an additional drop-down menu to enable editing of the tree, called ‘Policy tree editor’. Opening the Policy tree editor exposes a checkbox as well as an additional drop menu explaining all of the editing icons. When the checkbox is selected to enable editing of the policy tree, the editing icons are displayed on each policy.

To create a new policy under, below, or next to an existing policy, enable the policy tree editor and then find the desired parent policy. Select the appropriate icon and complete the wizard displayed in the information window. The wizard is a standard policy creation wizard and is nearly identical to the interface creation wizard. Upon wizard completion, the new policy is created.

To move a policy, enable the policy tree editor and select the scissors, (cut), icon on the policy that is to be moved. Then find the policy that is to be the parent or neighbor to the newly ‘cut’ policy and select the clipboard, (paste), icon. After the paste icon has been selected, locate the appropriate arrow designating the new location for the policy. All arrows are relative to the location of the ‘paste’ selected policy; left of, right of, sub policy, or parent of the selected policy.
