Opened: Jan 21, 2018
Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

In cases where a staging period was started, but no traffic passed through security policy, you might want to reset the staging period when traffic starts, but there is no option to do so.

Impact

There is a suggestion to enforce the signature before any traffic can influence this decision.

Conditions

Staging enabled for signatures in policy.

Workaround

If all signatures are staged, you can enforce them all, and then enable staging again. Note: Apply policy is required between actions.

Fix Information

Added option to reset the staging period for all or specific signatures. In modal windows shown after clicking 'Change properties...' on the Policy Signatures screen, when 'No' is not selected for 'Perform Staging', the system presents a checkbox: Reset Staging Period.
