Using the uri option in the declaration it is unclear how the policy arrives at the BIG-IP. 

 "My_ASM_Policy": {
        "class": "WAF_Policy",
        "url": "https://example.com/asm-policy.xml",
        "ignoreChanges": true

How does the data from that url get uploaded/downloaded to the big-ip.

1. PUSH: Does the AS3 software include the json data from that url as part of it's declaration?

2. PULL: Does the BIG-IP download the json from that url?
