What is the possible explanation for this?

  • DNS Rule is using one of the new features of R80 where an administrator can mark a rule with the padlock icon to let other administrators know it is important.
  • Another administrator is logged into the Management and currently editing the DNS Rule.
  • DNS Rule is a placeholder rule for a rule that existed in the past but was deleted.
  • This is normal behavior in R80 when there are duplicate rules in the Rule Base.
