Segmentation management including visualization, configuration, simulation, or a combination thereof

A system comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• a processing device, operatively coupled to the memory, to:
• tag a plurality of entities communicatively coupled to a network;
• group the plurality of entities communicatively coupled to the network into a plurality of groups based at least on one or more tags that are associated with each of the plurality of entities;
• display one or more controls for selecting a first group and a second group from the plurality of groups;
• in response to receiving an input associated with the one or more controls, display an indication of network traffic between the first group and the second group, the network traffic being associated with one or more segmentation rules;
• and
• in response to receiving a second input through the one or more controls, configure an enforcement point with the one or more segmentation rules, the enforcement point being associated with the first group and the second group.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions encoded thereon that, when executed by a processing device, cause the processing device to:

• tag a plurality of entities communicatively coupled to a network;
• group the plurality of entities communicatively coupled to the network into a plurality of groups based at least on one or more tags that are associated with each of the plurality of entities;
• display one or more controls for selecting a first group and a second group from the plurality of groups;
• in response to receiving an input associated with the one or more controls, display, by the processing device, an indication of network traffic between the first group and the second group, the network traffic being associated with one or more segmentation rules;
• and
• in response to receiving a second input through the one or more controls, configure an enforcement point with the one or more segmentation rules, the enforcement point being associated with the first group and the second group.
