Modify a Capture Filter
To modify a capture filter, just click on its name and edit its properties.
Note: Default system filters cannot be modified, but they can be saved under another name
and edited to create a new filter. If you try this, you will be prompted to do so.
Delete a Capture Filter
If you are on a standalone iGuard, when you delete a capture filter you are removing it from your
own machine.
If you are on an inSight Console, you can remove it from one or more of the iGuards to which it has
been deployed. Before deleting, View deployed filters to determine which iGuards are using the
filter you want to remove.
1. Select the Remove icon next to the filter you want to delete.
2. A confirmation popup will launch.
3. Select OK or cancel the deletion.
The capture filter will be deleted from the iGuard to which it
has been published.
Filter Out Files by Size
You may want to filter out images that are too small to be significant, or you might want to pay
special attention to files that are large enough to suggest abuse of network privileges.
For example, network data streams typically transport large numbers of images, but many of them
are used only for user convenience or as small signposts to facilitate certain operations. Small
images like icons or thumbnails do not have significant content and can therefore be eliminated
from the data stream.
