NSX-T Data Center REST API
Get SecurityStrategy
Retrieves a specific Security Strategy by its unique identifier, providing detailed rule template definitionsthat define security postures for a VPC. Security strategies are system-generated resources created
under the default project during system initialization and are automatically shared across all projects.
The response includes comprehensive rule template specifications with source/destination criteria, traffic actions,
service definitions, and placeholder references that are dynamically resolved when applied to specific VPCs.
These strategies serve as building blocks for VPC security profiles and define common security patterns
such as VPC isolation, external connectivity controls, essential service access, and inter-VPC communication policies.
All security strategies returned by this API are predefined, validated configurations maintained by the system.
