This online session is a deep dive on using Network Configuration Assistant (NCA) to configure zERT rules. It includes:
  • Introduction to zERT  Policy Enforcement and NCA
  • zERT policy rules and object structure
  • Creating basic zERT objects in NCA
  • Creating zERT rules in NCA
  • Creating zERT rule sets in NCA
  • Associating zERT rule sets to stacks in NCA and generating configuration
  • NCA reports to analyze your zERT configuration

Check out this online session recording and learn to configure zERT Policy Enforcement with NCA!
