drop-down list:

listed in this exclusion
• DETECT – Detect and log threats matching this signature from hosts listed in this exclusion, but
do not block access to the host
• PREVENT – Log and block host access for threats matching this signature from hosts listed in this
exclusion
3 To apply this action globally to all hosts, leave the Host field blank. To apply this action to an individual
host, type the host entry as it appears in the bookmark or offloaded application into the Host field. This
can be a host name or an IP address. To determine the correct host entry for this exclusion, see

You can configure a path to a particular folder or file along with the host. The protocol, port, and the
request parameters are simply ignored in the URL. If a path is configured, then the exclusion is
recursively applied to all subfolders and files. For instance, if Host is set to
webmail.yourcompany.com/exchange, then all files and folders under exchange are also excluded.

re-enable the exclusion.
To revert to using global signature group settings for a signature:

individual hosts, leave these host entries in the Host field and remove any host entries that are not to be
reverted.
