After creating a security policy for an application on an AHV cluster, what is the next action an administrator should take?

After creating a security policy for an application on an AHV cluster, the next logical action is to apply the security policy. This is a crucial step because until the policy is applied, it does not take effect or enforce the intended security measures on the application.

Applying the security policy ensures that all predefined rules and settings specified in the policy become active. This could involve implementing access controls, restricting network traffic, or other protective measures that were originally outlined.

The other options, while relevant to security management, occur either before or after applying the policy. Reviewing security policy settings is typically done before application to ensure they are correct and comprehensive. Testing the security policy could be a subsequent step after application to verify its effectiveness in a real-world scenario. Distributing the security policy might be necessary in a multi-administrative environment, but it is not a required step immediately after creation and application.
