About Application Filters
The Application screen provides a list of applications for selection. You can control which applications are displayed by selecting one or more application categories, technologies, risks, orientation, and direction. You can also search for a keyword in all application names by typing it into the Search field. For example, type in “bittorrent” into the Search field to find multiple applications with “bittorrent” (not case-sensitive) in the name.
When the application list is reduced to a list that is focused on your preferences, you can select the individual applications for your filter by clicking the Plus icon next to them, and then save your selections as an application filter object with a custom name or an automatically generated name. The image below shows the dialog with all categories, technologies, risks, orientation, and directions selected, but before any individual applications have been chosen.
As you select the applications for your filter, they appear in the Selected pane on the right. You can edit the list in this field by deleting the applications by clicking the Delete icon. The image below shows several applications in the Selected pane. The selected applications are also marked with a green checkmark icon in the application list on the left side.
When finished selecting the applications to include, you can type in a name for the object in the Match Object Name field (first, clear the Auto-generate match object name checkbox) and click the Save option. You will see the object name listed on the Object > Match Objects page with an object type of Application List. This object can then be selected when creating an App Rules policy or an App Based Route policy.
Application list objects created using the Auto-generate match object name option display a tilde (~) as the first character of the object name.
