Chapter 14      Understanding and Writing Access Control Rules
  Working with Different Types of Conditions
Note
To apply an access control policy that contains geolocation conditions, target managed devices must be 
running Version 5.3 or later of the FireSIGHT System.
You can add either of the following kinds of geolocation conditions to an access control rule:
  •
continents and countries that you select directly from the 
Geolocation
 tab of the 
Available Networks
 list
  •
geolocation objects that you have created using the object manager, which represent custom 
combinations of countries and continents
See 
 for information on creating geolocation objects 
using the object manager.
The following procedure explains how to add source and destination geolocation conditions while 
adding or editing an access control rule. See 
 for more detailed information.
To add geolocation conditions to an access control rule:
Access: 
Admin/Access Admin/Network Admin
Step 1
Select the 
Networks
 tab on the rule Edit page.
The Networks page appears.
Step 2
Under 
Available Networks
, select the 
Geolocation
 tab.
The Geolocation page appears.
Step 3
Optionally, click the 
Search by name or value
 prompt above the 
Available Networks
 list, then type the name 
of a country, continent, object, or country ISO code (such as 
USA
 or 
CHN
).
The list updates as you type to display matching conditions. See 
 
for more information.
Step 4
Click a condition (country or continent) in the 
Available Networks
 list. Use the Shift and Ctrl keys to select 
multiple conditions, or right-click and then click 
Select All
If you select a continent, all countries associated with that continent are automatically selected, as well 
as any countries that GeoDB updates may add under that continent in the future. Deselecting any country 
under a continent deselects that continent as a whole, thereby disabling the automatic addition of future 
countries there. You can select any combination of countries and continents.
Conditions you select are highlighted.
Step 5
You have the following choices:
  •
To filter traffic by source country or continent, click 
Add to Source
.
  •
To filter traffic by destination country or continent, click 
Add to Destination
.
Alternatively, you can drag and drop selected conditions into the 
Source Networks
 or 
Destination Networks
 
list.
Conditions you selected are added. Note that you can add the same condition as both a source 
country/continent and a destination country/continent.
Step 6
Save or continue editing the rule.
You must apply the access control policy for your changes to take effect; see 
.
