Acceptable Use Policy
An acceptable use policy (AUP) is a policy that users must agree to follow in order to access a
network or the Internet. It is common practice for many businesses and educational facilities to
require that employees or students agree to an acceptable use policy before accessing the
network or Internet through the SonicWALL.

You can use HTML formatting in the body of your message. Clicking the Example Template
button creates a preformatted HTML template for your AUP window.
