Decision policy priority

Decision policy priority

Decision policies can be assigned to a subnet in the following ways:

manually assigned to a subnet (see Configuring a decision policy)
through a default, global decision policy, which is set with the CLI
dynamically, by the CNA system. For information on dynamic decision policies, see Dynamic decision policies.

When more than one policy is associated with a subnet, the policy that has the higher priority value is used. The default value is zero (0), but you can change this value by using the priority command.

If two policies have equal priority values, CNA chooses the policy based on alphabetical order (except for the global decision policy, which always has the lowest priority). For example, gnomon is chosen before vole).
