Figure 10: Adding a one-time schedule
You can create a recurring schedule that activates or deactivates policies at specified
times of the day or on specified days of the week. For example, you might want to
prevent Internet use outside of working hours by creating a recurring schedule.
If you create a recurring schedule with a stop time that occurs before the start time,
the schedule will start at the start time and finish at the stop time on the next day. You
can use this technique to create recurring schedules that run from one day to the next.
You can also create a recurring schedule that runs for 24 hours by setting the start and
stop times to the same time.
