Configuring SDP policy service

SDP Policy Service provides functionality to minimize user input and to ensure that the network maintains pre-defined service levels. SDP Auto-Pilot and Semi-Assist modes are available for hosted service subscribers only.

To change the Policy Service mode

  1. Click Setup.
  2. Click Users and Groups.
  3. Choose a mode:
  • Autopilot Mode: In auto-pilot mode, the Policy Service Manager makes steerage changes to the appliance without any form of user intervention. SDP will monitor the results of changes to ensure that service levels are being met.
  • Semi Assist Mode: In semi-assist mode, the Policy Service Manager recommends configuration changes based on current data analysis. SDP applies recommended configuration changes to the appliance upon user approval.
  • Manual Mode: Default mode. SDP provides all the data but analysis and applying changes are the responsibility of the user.
