IM
and P2P Usage:
To solely log IM and/or P2P user activity, settings need to be made
in the Filter window and Manual Update to Trustwave Supplied Library Categories window (Weekly Update or Full URL Library Update options).
To additionally block specified groups and/or users from using components
and features of IM and/or P2P, settings need to be made in the Policy section of the Administrator console.
If applying Trustwave’s supplied IM and/or P2P library category to
an entitys profile, IM and/or P2P services included in that
category will be blocked as defined in Blocked
IM and P2P Clients and Services.
NOTE: If IM and/or P2P was set up to be blocked during a users
IM and/or P2P session, the user will not be blocked from using that
service until he/she logs off the server and back on again.
