Application Library now supports custom applications

You can now create custom applications in the Application Library and reference them in Gateway DNS, Network, and HTTP policies using hostnames, IP subnets, TCP/UDP ports, or port ranges. The Application Library interface has also been improved with better search, filtering, and application management in the policy builder.

Starting today, you can create custom applications in the Application Library and reference them in Gateway DNS, Network, and HTTP policies. You can define an application with hostnames, IP subnets, or both. Then, optionally add TCP or UDP ports or port ranges to restrict HTTP and Network matching.

This release also improves search and filtering in the Application Library, updates the interfaces, data, and metrics used to review applications, and makes it easier to select and manage applications in the Gateway policy builder.
