Configuring Resources for a User Group

To add an application policy to a group

1On the Access Policy Manager tab, in the right-pane, under Application Policies, click the resource you want to add and then drag it to the user group in the left pane.

2To allow or deny access, right-click the network resource and then click Allow or Deny.

When an application policy is created and then added to a user group, the application can use only the specified network path and end point policy. This does not prevent other applications from using these resources. To prevent applications from using these network resources, you can deny access to the net- work.

To deny applications without policies

1On the Access Policy Manager tab, right-click a user group and click Properties.

2On the General tab, under Application options, select Deny applications without policies. You can deny one application access to the network, while allowing access to all other applications.

A user can get access with this application to all internal networks that were assigned to that user, but the application is denied access to the denied network.

You can also deny all applications access to the network, but allow one to have restricted access to a specific network path. The procedure is the same as “To deny one application network access”. The dif- ference is instead of clearing the check box Deny applications without policies, it is selected. This check box denies all applications access to the corporate network. To allow one application network access, configure the application policy to accept the application, following the steps in the previous procedure.

Users obtain access to the application only to the internal site that is specifically allowed. No other appli- cations from the client computers are allowed access to the internal network.

To deny one application network access

1On the Access Policy Manager tab, right-click a user group and click Properties.

2On the General tab, under Application Options, select Deny applications without policies.

3Click OK and close the Properties dialog box.

4In the right pane, right-click Application Policies and then click New Application Policy.

5Type a name for the policy and click OK.

6Under Application Resource, in Application, type the application name. When this field is

complete, the MD5 field is populated automatically.

To restrict the application to a specific network path, under Network Resources, click a network resource and drag and drop it on Application Network Policies.

Other configured network resources must already be added to a user group and set to deny. To do so, in the left pane, under Network Policies in the group, right-click a network resource and click Deny. Click OK.

7Click OK.

8Click the application policy and drag it to the user group to which it applies.
