Policy Change Status

How can I tell if a policy change that has been published is actually live? I have seen changes take anywhere from a minute or so to what seems like 15-20 minutes to take effect and it makes it super tough to troubleshoot.

    Hi

    I fully understand you - it's also for me the biggest point where I struggling with Cato Platform. In my experience the very most changes are applied latest after 5min - most around 2-3min. I always struggling with that, when I'm in a debug-session with someone else for complicated cases and you have to go step-by-step forward, you need to prepare some good topics to talk about like weather etc. during these 5min until changes are applied ;-)

    Hi j_snizzle, 

    You may like to test the target FW rule with the relevant traffic details (source IP, Destination IP/URL, port/service...) and verify the FW rule is hit on the CMA Events, 5-10 mins after the FW rule is saved.

    Hope this helps.

    Cheers!
