Grid Manager displays all the rulesets that have been automatically or manually uploaded to the Grid Master. You can drill down to each ruleset to review individual rules in each rule category. To view the current threat protection rulesets and rules:

Grid: From the Data Management tab, select the Security tab -> Threat Protection Rules tab.
Member: From the Data Management tab, select the Security tab -> Members tab -> member link.
Profile: From the Data Management tab, select the Security tab -> Profiles tab -> profiles link.
In the Threat Protection Rules or the Members tab or the Profiles tab, Grid Manager displays current rulesets that are stored in the system. It displays the following information for each ruleset:

Note: If the member is associated with a profile, the rules become read-only and you cannot edit them when you drill down the ruleset from the Members tab. However, you can still edit the rules if you drill down the ruleset from the Profiles tab even though Grid members are associated with the selected profile.

- Version: Displays the ruleset version in YYYYMMDD-x format, where YYYY is the year, MM the month, DD the date, and x the rule engine version number. You can click a version link to view rule categories and individual rules in each category for that specific ruleset.
- Active On: Displays the Grid or the name of the Grid member on which the ruleset is currently running. This can be Grid, a Grid member name, or None. When this displays None, the ruleset is not being used.
- Do Not Delete: Indicates whether this ruleset can be deleted or not during a ruleset update.
- Added On: Displays the timestamp when the ruleset was uploaded to the Grid Master in this format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS, plus time zone.
- Add Type: Indicates whether the ruleset was uploaded automatically or manually.
- Comment: Additional information about this ruleset.

You can also do the following when you left click the Action icon :

Mark a ruleset as do not delete.
Activate, open, or edit a specific ruleset.
Click Reset to defaults to globally reset all the rule definitions to their default settings in the selected ruleset. When you reset the ruleset to defaults, all member rulesets will be reset as well. In the Ruleset Reset dialog, you can also select Delete all custom rules in selected ruleset to remove all the custom rules in the ruleset. You can reset to defaults at the rule category and rule levels. Note that the Reset to defaults option is not available if you upgrade to NIOS 7.3.x from a previous release.

To view rules in a specific ruleset version, click the Version link and Grid Manager displays the threat protection rules by categories. You can also select the check box of a ruleset and click the Open icon to view the rules in the ruleset.
You can also do the following in this panel:

Manually upload a ruleset by clicking the Add icon. For more information, see Manually Uploading Rulesets.
