Abstract
Technology for segmentation management is described. The segmentation management may include visualization, configuration, simulation, or a combination thereof, of segmentation policies. Segmentation management may include tagging entities communicatively coupled to a network, grouping the entities communicatively coupled to the network into a plurality of groups based at least on one or more tags that are associated with each of the entities, and displaying a user interface for selecting a first group and a second group from the plurality of groups. In response to receiving an input through the user interface, an indication of network traffic is displayed between the first group and the second group, where the network traffic is associated with one or more segmentation rules. In response to receiving additional input through the user interface, segmentation management configures an enforcement point with the segmentation rules.
