Policy

A policy provides a convenient way to apply a certain Isolator profile and/or Web Filter profile to local individual users or user groups. Policies are not active until they are applied.

To create a policy from GUI:
  1. Go to Policies and Profiles > Policies and click Create New Policy.
  2. Type in a name for the policy and select the desired Isolator and/or Web Filter profiles, and/or ICAP Filter profile to be used in the policy.
  3. Specify the value for Max Session Per User, which is the maximum number of sessions (tabs) allowed for requests from a same local user.
  4. Specify the value for Max Session Per IP, which is the maximum number of sessions (tabs) allowed for requests from a unique IP address.
  5. Specify the Auth Cookie Lifetime setting, which is the number of hours after which the authorization cookie expires and the user needs to re-login. Enter an integer within the range of 1-240.
    Note

    This setting does not take effect when the user is in guest mode.

  6. Click OK to finish.
