Properties Pane - F-SECURE POLICY MANAGER 7.0 Administrator's Manual

6.2.4

Properties Pane

After selecting a domain or host, you can access the above options from
the Edit menu.
The domains referred to in the commands are not Windows NT or DNS
domains. Policy domains are groups of hosts or subdomains that have a
similar security policy.
Defining policies consists of specifying default values for settings,
specifying what values are allowed, and specifying access restrictions to
the settings. Policies for a domain or a host are defined in the Properties
pane.
The Properties pane contains subtrees ("branches"), tables, rows, and
policy variables. Subtrees are only used to expand the structures. Tables
may contain any number of rows.
The Properties pane has the following tabs:
Policy - The Policy tab allows you to use the Product View pane
to define settings, restrictions, and operations for domains or
hosts. These changes become effective after the policy has been
distributed and the Agent has fetched the policy file.
Status - Beneath each product shown in the Status tab are two
status categories: Settings and Statistics. Settings displays the
local settings that have been explicitly modified in the host;
default values or values set in the Base Policy are not displayed.
The Statistics subtree displays statistics for the host for each
product. If a policy domain is selected, the Status view displays
number of hosts in the domain and which hosts are disconnected
from F-Secure Policy Manager.
Alerts - Displays a list of alerts originating from hosts in the
selected domain, displays the selected alert in the Product View
pane, and displays reports related to the alerts.
Reports - Displays all reports from the selected host.
Installation - Displays installation options.
