Policies

Policies can contain sets of attributes or endpoints.

Attributes Scope defines devices which are available to end users. Access is defined by a specific attribute such as siteName.

API Endpoints Scope defines actions which are permitted to end users to perform on allowed devices or in the system. Access is defined only to a specific API endpoint within the IP Fabric (e.g. discovery policy allows access to discovery API endpoints (actions)).

Policies page enables you to create or modify policies.
