Schedule intrusion rule updates

Schedule recurring intrusion rule updates to keep the installed intrusion rules current.

Before you begin

Make sure your process for updating intrusion rules complies with your security policies.

Initial configuration creates a daily schedule for intrusion rule updates. Review the schedule and adjust the frequency as needed. You can also configure automatic deployment after each rule update. Automatic deployment can disrupt traffic inspection and flow.
