White List Rule Parameters
The white list consists of rules, each associated with a certain protocol. The rule specifies users and groups to which it applies, along with a set of general and protocol-specific parameters.
The general parameters include:
•Name - Specifies the name of the rule.
•Protocol - Specifies the protocol the rule applies to. The following protocols are supported: Any, Career Search, File Sharing, FTP, HTTP, IBM Notes, ICQ Messenger, IRC, Jabber, Mail.ru Agent, MAPI, Skype, SMB, SMTP, Social Networks, SSL, Telnet, Viber, Web Mail, Web Search, and Zoom. With a white list rule created for the Any protocol, you can allow client connections to the specified hosts and/or ports, regardless of the protocol used to establish connections.
Note: •Connections allowed by a white list rule created for the Any protocol cannot be blocked by Basic IP Firewall rules. •If the Viber protocol is not allowed by the protocol permission settings, white list rules for that protocol have no effect. In this case, Viber users cannot send / receive messages and files. •If the HTTP protocol is not allowed by the protocol permission settings, connection to the Zimbra or Outlook Web App (OWA) mail service may fail despite the Web Mail protocol permission. To prevent failures in this case, add the Zimbra and OWA hosts to the white list for the HTTP protocol. |
The protocol-specific parameters are as follows:
