To delete an Application Defense, select the Application Defense that you
want to delete, and click Delete. You will be prompted to confirm your decision.
However, you cannot delete an Application Defense if it is being used
in a proxy rule. If the Application Defense is used in a rule, a pop-up window
will appear informing you which rules are currently using this defense.
Before you can delete the defense, you will need to modify each of the rules
to remove the specified defense from those rules.
• View the rules in which an Application Defense/Group is currently used—
To view the rules or rule groups that currently use a particular Application
Defense (or group), highlight the appropriate defense (or group) and click
Usage. A pop-up window appears listing the rule names that are currently
using the specified defense. Click Close when you are finished viewing the
rule list.
The bottom portion of each window (or pop-up, if you clicked Modify) displays
the actual configuration information for the selected Application Defense. The
information will vary depending on the Application Defense category you
select. The following fields remain constant among all Application Defense
windows:
• Name—This field contains the name of the Application Defense that you
are viewing. This field cannot be modified. If you need to rename an
Application Defense, you can create a duplicate defense with the desired
name, and then delete the existing Application Defense.
• [Web/Secure Web only] Type—This field allows you to specify whether a
defense will be used to protect a server, client, or both. For more
information about the Type field, see “Creating Web or Secure Web
Application Defenses” on page 156.
• Description—This field allows you to provide information about the
Application Defense to help you more easily identify it.
