Chapter 20      Configuring Intrusion Policies 
  Understanding the Base Policy
Accepting Rule Setting Changes from a Custom Base Policy
License: 
Protection
When you set event filters, dynamic states, and alerting for selected rules in a custom policy that you use 
as your base policy, then remove those settings in the policy that uses the custom policy as its base policy, 
your intrusion policy ignores subsequent setting changes that you make to the affected rules in the 
custom policy you use as your base policy.
The following procedure explains how to set a policy where you have not added layers to accept changes 
to rule settings that you make in the custom policy that you use as your base policy. See 
 to accept settings for these rules in a policy where you have added 
layers.
