CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION FILTERING ELEMENTS

Filtering Elements

Filtering operations include the following elements: groups, filtering profiles and their components, and rules for filtering.

Group Types

In the Group section of the Administrator console, group types are structured in a tree format in the control panel. There are four group types in the tree list:

•Global Group

•IP groups

•NT domain groups

•LDAP domain groups

NOTE: If authentication is enabled, the global administrator— who has all rights and permissions on the R3000 server—will see all branches of the tree: Global Group, IP, NT, and LDAP. If authentication is disabled, only the Global Group and IP branches will be seen.

Global Group

The first group that must be set up is the global group,

represented in the tree structure by the global icon . The filtering profile created for the global group represents the default profile to be used by all groups that do not have a filtering profile, and all users who do not belong to a group.
