Filtering Profile Components:

Filtering profiles are comprised of the following components:

• library categories - used when creating a rule, minimum filtering level, or filtering profile for the global group or any entity
• service ports - used when setting up filter segments on the network, creating the global group (default) filtering profile, or establishing the minimum filtering level
• rules - specifies which library categories should be blocked, left open, assigned a warn filter setting, or white listed
• filter options - specify which features will be enabled: X Strikes Blocking, Google/Bing/Yahoo!/Youtube/Ask/AOL Safe Search Enforcement, Search Engine Keyword Filter Control, URL Keyword Filter Control
• minimum filtering level - takes precedence over filtering profiles of entities who are using a filtering profile other than the global (default) filtering profile
• filter settings - used by service ports, filtering profiles, rules, and the minimum filtering level to indicate whether users should be granted or denied access to specified Internet content
• quota (optional) - used when creating a rule or filtering profile for the global group or any entity. If used in a filtering profile, restricts user time in a category.
