Group and Label Workloads
The organization assigns labels to a group of workloads to create a scope. The hierarchical scope tree helps to divide the workloads into smaller groups, while reserving the lowest branch in the scope tree for individual applications.
Select a parent scope from the scope tree to create a new scope, which contains a subset of the members from the parent scope.
On this window, organize your workloads into groups in a hierarchical structure. Break down your network into hierarchical groups to allow more flexibility and scalable policy discovery and definition.
The wizard helps to apply labels to their workloads, which are key parameters that describe a workload or endpoint represented as a key-value pair. These labels are then grouped into scopes, and workloads are automatically grouped into scopes based on their associated labels. You can define segmentation policies based on scopes.
Hover over each block or scope in the tree for more information about the type of workloads or hosts it includes.
