Release 7.0.0.4

Think of the inheritance state as a toggler. If a rule's Inherit Policy State is Enabled, it means the

rule reflects whatever state the policy is in. If it is Disabled, the inheritance link between policy and

rule is broken.

There are two models for managing the inheritance properties of rules and policies. One is policy-

based and the other is rule-based.

Activate or Deactivate a Policy

When the Setup Wizard is used to install iGuard, the boxes that are checked on the Policy

Activation page determine which policies are activated. However, policies can also be activated or

deactivated from the Policies page.

1. Go to the Policies tab.

2. Check the box of the policy whose activation state you want to change.

3. Pull down the Actions menu.

4. Select Activate or Deactivate.

5. Look at the State column in the list view that is launched to verify that the state has

changed.
