Iprism's Default Profiles; Web Profiles - EdgeWave iPrism Web Security Administration Manual

iPrism
• Machine-level filtering, based on Machine ID, that applies only to remote users. The
Machine ID identifies a particular remote machine and defines a policy for all users on that
machine. It is treated like a username, and by default is the hostname of the machine when the
client is installed. For detailed information, see

iPrism's Default Profiles

iPrism ships with five preconfigured (default) profiles, two for web filtering and three for application
filtering. This allows you to realize some level of filtering while you are learning how to create your
own profiles. You may find these to be useful and decide to keep them or, once you start creating
your own profiles, you may choose to edit or delete them. The preconfigured profiles are as follows:
• PassAll: This profile allows access to any site without monitoring.
• BlockOffensive: This web filtering profile blocks and monitors access to sites containing
pornography, profanity, violence, bomb-making, etc.
• BlockP2P: Blocks all P2P traffic only.
• BlockIMP2P: Blocks all IM and P2P traffic.
• PassIMP2P: Blocks no IM or P2P traffic.
