Finding affected rules parameters

Enabling/Disabling Cyan Highlighting in Finding Affected Rules Results

When deleting an object from a rule on a Check Point device, the object will be replaced with "any" if it was the only object for source, destination, or service for that rule. By default, cyan highlighting in the finding affected rules results indicates where an object slated to be deleted will be replaced by "any". If desired, you can disable this.

1. To enable cyan highlighting in finding affected rules results. (Default)

Enabling/Disabling Locating Objects by Scope When Finding Affected Rules

For Check Point devices, objects can be defined on the MDSM or on the CMA, so deleting an object may affect rules on devices other than the device in the current change request.

When this feature is disabled, only the device specified in the object change request will be analyzed for affected rules.

Configuration Parameter Name Value
