Description: The time when the security policy was installed to the IPS
What is ipsPolicyTime?
This object records the timestamp of when the currently active security policy (named in ipsSecurityPolicy) was installed onto the IPS sensor. It helps an administrator confirm a recent policy push actually took effect on this specific device and wasn't silently skipped, or spot a sensor that's still running a stale policy from before a scheduled update. For example, if ipsPolicyTime shows a value from several weeks ago despite a policy change having been pushed yesterday, that sensor likely failed to pick up the new policy.
