DESCRIPTION

Enable

 

Select this option to have the ZyWALL apply this white list entry when using the

 

 

white list.

 

 

 

File Pattern

 

Specify a pattern to identify the names of files that the ZyWALL should not scan

 

 

for viruses.

 

 

Use up to 80 characters. Alphanumeric characters, underscores (_), dashes (-),

 

 

question marks (?) and asterisks (*) are allowed.

 

 

A question mark (?) lets a single character in the file name vary. For example, use

 

 

“a?.zip” (without the quotation marks) to specify aa.zip, ab.zip and so on.

 

 

Wildcards (*) let multiple files match the pattern. For example, use “*a.zip” (without

 

 

the quotation marks) to specify any file that ends with “a.zip”. A file named

 

 

“testa.zip would match. There could be any number (of any type) of characters in

 

 

front of the “a.zip” at the end and the file name would still match. A file named

 

 

“test.zipa” for example would not match.

 

 

A * in the middle of a pattern has the ZyWALL check the beginning and end of the

 

 

file name and ignore the middle. For example, with “abc*.zip”, any file starting with

 

 

“abc” and ending in “.zip” matches, no matter how many characters are in

 

 

between.

 

 

The whole file name has to match if you do not use a question mark or asterisk.

 

 

If you do not use a wildcard, the ZyWALL checks up to the first 80 characters of a

 

 

file name.
