Setting up threat levels
The system comes with three default threat levels in a range from 0 to 10: High [10], Normal [5], and Low [0]. You may change
and add to these default threat levels up to a maximum of 255 levels. When setting up threat levels, consider leaving gaps
in the numeric assignment so that you can insert levels later if needed.
Prerequisites: You must have sufficient administrative privileges. For systems with a Supervisor, after you join a controller
to the Supervisor, you must add all threat level groups at the Supervisor. Threat levels for systems without a Supervisor
may be configured at a controller.
