Editing Exclusions

When you apply profiles to a location, the Avalanche Console applies the configurations to all nested locations within that location. That profile is considered an inherited profile. However, you can exclude an inherited profile from a location. The profile will still appear in the Applied Profiles tab, but will not be applied to any servers or devices. The profile will also be excluded from any associated sub-locations.

For example:

Navigation Window

When a profile is applied at My Enterprise, it is also applied to all sub-locations. However, if it is excluded at Group A, the profile will also be excluded from Group 1 and Group 2.

When a profile has been excluded from a parent location, you can allow a sub‑location to apply it. Using the above example, you could reapply a profile to Group 1 that has been excluded at Group A. (It would still be excluded at Group 2.)

To exclude an inherited profile:

Navigate to the location where you want to exclude a profile and click the Profiles context link.

In the Applied Profiles panel, locate the profile you want to exclude and click Included in the Excluded column for that profile.

The status of the profile will change from Included to Excluded and the profile information will be grayed out.

To reapply an excluded profile, click Excluded in the Applied Profiles panel.
