INSTALLATION DECISIONS

Other Considerations

You can change the Customer Feedback and Company & Intranet settings From the Web Filter Settings in the Enterprise Manager. See the Administrator’s Guide for more details.

E-MAIL NOTIFICATIONS

Web Filter can automatically notify the system administrator when any of the following events occur:

•Service running status change - If the status of any of the Web Filter services changes (for instance, from Running to Stopped).

•Internet Threat Database license reminders - If the Internet Threat Database license is close to expiring.

•Scheduled task failures - If any scheduled tasks fail to run.

•ISA 2004 event notifications - If the connection is lost between the ISA Server 2004 or 2006 and the Web Filter service, a notification will be sent.

Note: The ISA 2004 event notifications are not available for ISA Server 2000.

If you decide to enable e-mail notifications, you will need to know the hostname or IP address of your mail server and will need to identify an administrator that will receive the notifications.

Caution: Entering E-mail server, Recipient and From e-mail address details from within Web Filter will overwrite any settings present in ISA Server for the Server not responding and Intrusion detected alerts.

REMOTE ADMINISTRATION CLIENT

You can administer Web Filter from a remote location by installing the Remote Administration Client. You can use the Remote Administration Client to:

•View monitored traffic.

•Create and edit rules.

•Run reports.

•Start and stop the Web Filter Service.

•Start and stop the Scheduler Service.

•Access the Real-Time Monitor.
