Miscellaneous Device Operations

The SurfControl CPA server periodically updates its predefined category list, but does
not notify its clients when the list is updated. To ensure that the security device and NSM
use most up-to-date predefined categories, you must update the list manually, first on
the device, then for the NSM system.
NOTE: The security device periodically polls the CPA server for category updates. The
default interval is every two weeks; for details on changing this settings, see the Network
and Security Manager Online Help topic, "Configuring Firewall/VPN Devices".
