Rules

Rules Inventory helps to define custom business rule(s) for specific actions and workflow(s) can be invoked for closed-loop automation.

Users can customize any action as per the business use case using workflow and associate it with the actions. The workflow will be triggered for a Rule-based on the criteria configured.

Key Features:

  • A common Rule Inventory integrating key platforms (i.e., Control Center, Device Management, Alerts, Insight, etc.).

  • Provision to define custom business rule(s) for module-specific actions.

  • Provision to define the trigger, rule criteria for module-specific actions.

  • Provision to define one or many workflow actions against a rule.

  • Provision to execute the specific action defined based on the pre-defined rule.

  • Provision to trigger workflow requests/token ID, and indicate the relevant status.

  • Provision for a common notification center for actioning workflow requests.

Why Rules, Policy in AppViewX?

A policy is a condition that when met causes the system to perform a specific set of actions.

Policies can be used for event-driven automation and to automate network change and

configuration tasks such as:

  • A comprehensive policy/rule inventory to define, manage policies, and triggers.

  • Web interface to configure business data objects without changing code.

  • Eliminates hard coding of complex business logic; enables faster policy-driven GTM solutions.

  • Define internal rules across modules – Certificate, Alert, Control Center, Dashboard, Device Management, Reports, etc.

  • Perform event-driven orchestration based on internal and external event(s).

  • Provision to map Business processes to specific actions across AppViewX.

  • Detecting and collecting configuration changes made by external users.

  • Notifying users and systems when a configuration change is detected.

  • Auto-remediating critical compliance violations.

  • A rule can be a server-side, client-side logic that runs when any CRUD operation is performed.

The Rules sub-system within the Studio module allows you to perform the following tasks:

  • Create a rule

  • Clone a rule

  • Delete a rule
