Configuring Regular Expression Groups
Use the Add and Edit Regular Expression Groups dialog boxes to define regular expression groups,
which contain multiple regular expressions. Groups make it possible for you to create modular regular
expressions and group them in multiple ways for various uses. The objects can be used in some
inspection class maps and inspection policy maps.
Navigation Path
Select Manage > Policy Objects, then select Maps > Regular Expressions Groups from the Object
Type selector. Right-click inside the work area, then select New Object or right-click a row and select
Edit Object.
