Endpoint policies galore

If you have a freshly installed UAG server in front of you, you might be considering which Endpoint policies to set for your applications. UAG comes with no less than 27 built-in predefined policies just for Windows computers (plus another 34 policies for Mac and Linux), but their naming doesn’t always indicate what they actually do. Technically, it’s quite easy to see it by opening each one and seeing, but I’d like to save you some of that time. Here are all the policies, and their default configuration:

Default Non Web Application Access

This policy contains the default “Any Anti Virus” policy, which requires the endpoint to have any AV product installed, updated and running. Any AV that is supported by the Windows Security Center (Action center in Windows 7) would meet that sub-policy. In addition, this policy requires that the computer meets the certified endpoint policy, or the corporate machine policy, or the privileged endpoint policy, or have the endpoint cleanup component installed and running.

Default Privileged Endpoint

This policy requires that the computer meets the policies defined as “privileged endpoint” on the trunk.

Default Session Access

This policy has no requirements

Default Web Application Access

This policy has no requirements

Default Web Application Download

This policy requires that the computer meets the certified endpoint policy, or the corporate machine policy, or the privileged endpoint policy, or have the endpoint cleanup component installed and running.

Default Web Application Restricted Zone Access

This policy has no requirements

Default Web Application Upload

This policy contains the default “Any Anti Virus” policy, which requires the endpoint to have any AV product installed, updated and running.

Never

As you can see, most of the default policies do not actually have any requirements. They simply include the text “true”, which means that the policy will evaluate to “pass” no matter what the endpoint parameters are:

If you’re asking yourself what is the purpose of having the many policies, with so many of them having no requirements or being identical, the answer is that the policies come in groups, and every top-level group has to have the full set. For example, the Default Web Application policy has to have the four sub policies of Access, Upload, Download and Restricted zone. Even though the Access and Restricted Zone are identical and have no requirements, we still have to have them to complete the Default Web Application policy.
