3.6.8. Application Control
IP rules or IP policies can be set up so they apply only to traffic related to specific applications. An
example of an application that might require this kind of administrator control is traffic related to
BitTorrent. Applying IP rules or IP policies based on the application type is known in cOS Core as
Application Control.
The application control subsystem is driven using a database of application signatures. Each
signature corresponding to one type of application. The entire signature database is listed in the
separate document entitled cOS Core Application Control Signatures.
For application control to work, the current cOS Core license must allow the feature and the
effect of not having a license that allows it is discussed later in this section.
