Enforcing signatures and Staging

I have a policy that is a month old. It is in blocking mode. The staging time is 7 days. Currently, I have a number of attack signatures that are ready to be enforced. If I do enforce, will the signatures be blocked immediately, or after 7 days as a result of staging settings?

 

Thank you.

    The enforcement period is, essentially, the staging period. So to answer your question, if you enforce them you take them out of staging and as your policy is in blocking mode should traffic match the signature the traffic will be blocked.
