A conditional policy is a set of conditional rules, which can be applied to a federated pair. A conditional policy can contain multiple conditional rules.

A default policy is automatically created when you do the initial setup through the setup wizard. The default policy is automatically applied to a federated pair if no other policy is applied. You cannot delete the default policy, you can only edit it. The default policy automatically includes a set of predefined rules. You can create additional policies. However, only one policy can be applied to a federated pair with the exception of the Active Logon policy, which can be applied in addition to another policy.

You can do the following in a policy:

- Add or delete rules.
- Move rules up or down in the list.
- Change the action on a rule.
- Disable rules.
