Deleting a Distributed Cloud Firewall Rule

If a rule is not Enforced, you can safely delete it.

If a rule is Enforced, and any of its Destination Groups belong to a VPC/VNet that has SG Orchestration (intra-VPC) enabled, the resources related to those SmartGroups may be impacted by rule deletion, depending on how the rule is defined.

To delete a rule:

  1. On the Security > Distributed Cloud Firewall > Policy tab, click the vertical ellipsis 15 menu next to the rule and then click Delete Rule.

  2. Click Save to delete the rule. You can click Discard if you want to keep the rule.

If you have upgraded to Controller 8.0, you must select a ruleset from the Ruleset list on the Policy tab before deleting a rule. You cannot delete rules from the predefined Post Rules Policy List ruleset.
