Create a new zone to replace the legacy zone
Create new zones using saved device queries as zone rules to replace legacy zones.
Create new zones, one at a time, starting with the zones that you intend to assign the least restrictive device policy. Each time you create a zone with a device policy assignment, the policy assignment for devices in the zone are overwritten. Create the zone with the most restrictive device policy last to make sure that the highest-ranked devices receive the most restrictive policy as intended.
- Create saved device queries to replace legacy zone rules.
- Identify the device policy that you want to assign, if you are using this zone for device policy assignment.
- In the console, go to the Zones page.
- Click Add New Zone.
- In the Zone Name field, type a name or use the previous name with “V2” as a suffix.
- In the Policy field:
- If the zone is not used for device policy assignment, select None.
- If the zone is used for device policy assignment, select the appropriate device policy. Start with the least restrictive policy and work towards creating a zone for devices that require the most restrictive policy.
- Click Save to create the zone.
- Click the zone that you created.
- In the Zone Rule section, click Create Rule.
- Select the saved query that you want to use for this zone and validate the query string that is displayed.
- If you want to automatically remove a device from this zone when a device no longer meets the rule conditions, and it makes sense for devices in this zone, select the Remove devices automatically from this zone option.
- Click Save.
- If needed, assign this zone to applicable areas like zone-based update policies, or Zone Manager or User roles for asset management.
- Delete the legacy zone that you replaced.
