APM Apply Access Policy - affect existing sessions vs new sessions

This might be a silly question, but I'm having trouble finding a definite answer. When does applying changes to an access policy invalidate currently connected sessions vs only taking affect for new...

Hi,

 

When you connect to APM you get a session and then the apd process will evaluate the access policy until allow or deny. At this point apd hands off the session to tmm. Any changes to the VPE will not affect these already established sessions. When you "Apply" the access policy it is forcing the new changes into apd so that the next time a access policy evaluation starts the new settings take affect.
