Managing Application Resources

Overview

Network applications require that software components in different locations connect to each other and transfer data using specific services. The resources defined in SecureApp include the following:

Field	Permitted Objects
Source and Destination	Servers and server groups: Can be individual or groups of servers, subnets, IP ranges, and F5 load balancers.
Source only	Users: Defined by name and IP. LDAP: Group imported from an LDAP active directory.
Services/Application identities	Services: Selected from SecureApp's services list of common services and/or defined custom services and service groups. Application identities: When creating your connections, you can select application identities from a predefined list in SecureApp.
