3.102.3. FailurePolicyContext Previous topic Parent topic Child topic Next topic

FailurePolicyContext is a string parameter that allows grouping policies defined in different AuthBys. The default value is an empty string which puts all monitored policies in the same group.
For example, when failure policy clauses are configured for two Handlers with the same FailurePolicContext value, it is enough for a policy violation to occur in one Handler. The subsequent attempts by the same source will be deemed to be in violation by the both Handlers. With different FailurePolicyContext values, a violation detected in one Handler does not effect policing done within the other Handler.
