Disabling policies

Hi, quick query just looking to disable some policies in my test lab

 

What is the best practice with Fortigate to disable before fully deleting policies?

    Are you asking about the purpose of disabling policy? It might be used when you want/need to temporarily remove the policy from the policy lookup process. Maybe for debugging, or maybe it's not quite ready to be deployed for whatever the reason is. If don't foresee any chance to re-enable it, I would delete it instead.

    I don't think any document as "best practive" for that.
