Configure initial plan device group conditions

This topic explains how to configure custom conditions for which device group to query during initial planning.

In this topic:

Create new initial plan conditions

When a traffic change request enters the Initial Plan stage, FireFlow determines which devices are relevant for the change request with an AFA traffic simulation query on a group of devices. By default, the traffic simulation query is always run on the ALL_FIREWALLS group. If desired, you can specify conditions for when the query should run on a different AFA defined device group.

Do the following:

1. Log in to FireFlow for configuration purposes. For details, see Log in for configuration purposes.

2. In the main menu, click Configuration.

   The FireFlow Configuration page appears.

   

3. Click Conditional Logic.

5. Click .

   The Create device group for initial plan custom logic window appears.
