Policies are listed in the opening view. A new installation will not have any policies listed. You need to define a policy before moving forward to attaching domains and adding answers or rules. Add Policy opens the window to create a new policy. |

What do you want to do?
| Create or update a policy | A policy specifies only answers and rules for what to include in DNS response messages. Policies are attached to domains where those answers are applicable. |
| Attach a DNS zone | Attach a managed DNS zone to a policy. DNS query responses are determined by the Dynamic Steering Rule filters. |
| Add or update policy answers | Identified answers are filtered by the policy rules and then made available for DNS query responses. |
| Add or update policy rules | Rules define the filters that answers must meet to be included in a DNS query response. |
