Chapter 2: Policy screen
The Policy screen is comprised of windows and dialog
boxes used for adding IP groups and/or LDAP domains, and
for creating filtering profiles for IP/LDAP groups and their
members.
Fig. 2:2-1 Policy screen
For the IP group branch, the global administrator creates
master IP groups. For each master IP group, the designated
group administrator creates sub-groups and individual IP
members, and adds and maintains their filtering profiles.
For the LDAP domain branch, the global administrator must
first set up authentication in order to enable the LDAP
branch(es). For each domain, the administrator then sets up
and maintains groups, and creates filtering profiles for
groups and users.
The navigation panel at the left of the screen contains a hier-
archical list of groups set up in a tree format. At the root of
this tree is Policy. The main branches of this tree include:
Global Group and IP, followed by LDAP if authentication is
enabled.
