Screenshot 124: The policy tree
When traffic is not caught by the policy tree
There are Auto-Catch All circuits, Auto-Catch All virtual circuits and Auto-Catch All policies for any traffic that does not get
caught by your configured circuits, virtual circuits, and policies. Auto-Catch All do not have any policies applied to it, but
they are monitored and will be shown on the virtual circuit graph.
Consider a configuration where you have two bridges on the appliance. If you define a circuit for the first bridge but not
the second, then any traffic that comes in on the second bridge will fall into the Auto Catch-All circuit and will not have
any of your policies applied to it.
Similarly consider a configuration where you have a circuit that will capture traffic for your entire office. You define
multiple virtual circuits for each subnet that you are interested in, but your virtual circuits do not cover your entire office.
For example, you have virtual circuits for your WiFi network, your servers, your staff desktop network, but perhaps you
forgot your printers. The system will automatically define a virtual circuit for the remaining traffic called Auto Catch-all.
Any traffic that falls into a circuit, but not into any of the circuit's virtual circuits, will fall into the Auto Catch-all virtual circuit
and will not have any of your policies applied to it.
Finally consider a configuration where you have a virtual circuit that captures all the traffic for a particular virtual circuit,
such as your WiFi network. You define policies for each type of traffic that you want to control or protect or accelerate, but
do not include all the traffic on your WiFi network. For example, you have policies for P2P, streaming, and web, but you do
not have policies for software updates. The system will automatically define a policy for the remaining traffic called Auto
