Personal WAF layers are a construct of UPL rules created by the firewall administrator. This section allows you to manage custom layers: create, delete, update and view. Since the number of layers can be large, on the WAF -> Custom WAF Layers page there is a filter to search for layers by name.
Personal WAF layers can be added to a WAF profile for further use. A layer is a UPL construct used to group rules and make a single decision.
For syntax for writing UPL rules, see the Configuring Rules Using UPL - UserGate section for more details.
