    Note:

    If the subscriber identification policy is a global policy, global AA group policies are listed. If the subscriber identification policy is a local policy, local AA group policies are listed.

    Global AA group policies must be manually distributed to the NE before a global subscriber identification policy using the application profiles can be distributed.

    When a new subscriber identification or subscriber explicit map is discovered from the NE, the AA group policy is not automatically resynchronized to the global subscriber identification policy.
