Explanation

When Palo Alto Networks releases App-ID content updates that modify how existing applications are classified or introduce new application signatures that split previously identified traffic, the firewall provides a 'Review Policies' button in the dynamic content update workflow. Clicking 'Review Policies' allows administrators to see exactly which security policy rules reference applications affected by the update, so they can assess impact and make necessary rule adjustments before committing the change. 'Check Now' initiates a check for available updates, 'Download' retrieves the update package, and 'Test Policy Match' is a separate diagnostic tool not specific to the update workflow.
