BTW, based on your production experience which way of creating policy is most convenient for building policy when more advanced setup is necessary - Rapid Deployment Policy and then manual tweaking or starting from the begging with Real Traffic Policy Builder and then fine tuning based on collected data?

 

I know that there is no single answer for every configuration but probably there are ways that are used more often than other, or maybe you can share some hints when to use one way and when another?

Starting with Policy Builder is the best practice. There is much less administrative overhead that comes with learning everything manually. Even if the PB is used you still have the option of manual configuration and fine tuning. Try searching Devcentral using the phrase "asm policy best practice". There are many threads discussing various approaches.
