Verify policy compliance issues and update or edit affected policies using the Policy Compliance area in Cisco SD-WAN Manager. Verify noncompliant policies against the current Protocol Pack and choose to update application lists or change the policy.

Procedure

1.

From the Cisco SD-WAN Manager menu, choose Configuration > Application Catalog > Compliance.

In releases before Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Manager Release 20.16.1, the option is Policy Compliance.

In the Policy Compliance area, the table shows the policies that do not comply with the application lists in the current Protocol Pack.
2.

In the Policy Compliance area, click ... in the Actions column adjacent to the policy you want to update and choose one of these:

  • Update Application: Automatically updates the relevant application lists used by affected policies to incorporate the new application or applications.

    Note

    • Ensure that all devices in the network are using Cisco IOS XE Catalyst SD-WAN Release 17.14.1a or later. If there are devices in the network using earlier releases, updating applications may cause a failure in employing a policy.

    • For policies created using policy groups, this action does not deploy the policy to the devices. In this case, to update devices to use the adjusted policy, deploy the policy manually to the devices.

  • Change Policy: Opens the policy to enable you to manually edit the policy and address the use of the affected application.
