Deep Packet Inspection
AppRF is Dell's custom built Layer 7 firewall capability. It comprises of an on-board deep packet inspection and a
cloud-based Web Policy Enforcement service that allows creating firewall policies based on types of application.
The web policy enforcement capabilities require the W-IAP to have a web policy enforcement subscription. Please
contact the Dell Sales Team.
W-IAPs with DPI capability analyze data packets to identify applications in-use and allow you to create access rules
to determine client access to applications, application categories, web categories and website URLs based on
security ratings. You can also define traffic shaping policies such as bandwidth control and QoS per application for
client roles. For example, you can block bandwidth monopolizing applications on a guest role within an enterprise.
The AppRF feature provides application visibility for analyzing client traffic flow. W-IAPs support both the power of
in-device packet flow identification and dynamically updated cloud-based web categorization.
To view the graphs, set the AppRF visibility option in the System window to Enabled. For more information on DPI
ACLs and AppRF visibility, see the following topics:
Enabling Application Visibility
