Hi,

It matters, as someone might need to "debug" the backend setup and the name, if 
exists, can add details.
This obviously a vendor's choice if they wish to push this back to backend but 
the API should not remove this as a choice.

Folks,

I wonder why using names on the backend could be needed? For the code there is 
no much difference between name and the id.

Thanks,
Eugene.

Hi,

My concern is that if from some reason the driver implementer would like to 
reflect the name also in the backend device, than an update should also be 
calling the driver.
Using readable names also makes sense on the back-end device.

Hi Avishay,

1) I think name might be useful. Consider user forms a list of rules which 
route requests to a pool with static images or static pages, it may make sense 
to give those policy a name 'static-iamges', 'static-pages', rather then 
operate on ids.

2) I think updating the name is useful as well, but just on DB level, so there 
is no point in calling the driver and communicating with the backend.

Thanks,
Eugene.

Hi
L7Policy  holds a list of L7rules plus 1 attribute: "name" .
Questions:

1)      Do we need to have this name attribute?

2)      Do we want to allow update operation of the name attribute? Do we need 
to invoke the driver when such update occurred?

Thanks

Avishay
