ProSecure Web/Email Security Threat Management (STM) Appliance
You can define groups either by name or by IP address and subnet:
• Groups defined by name. These are local groups on the STM to which you can add
users from the STM’s local user database. Local groups are automatically assigned to the
STM’s prosecuredomain default domain.
Note: For information about groups that are defined by VLANs, see
Creating and Deleting VLANs for Use with RADIUS Domains on
page 170.
• Groups defined by IP address and subnet. These are groups that can be on your local
network or on a remote device.
Note: If you use groups on a remote device, you need to configure your
network’s firewall to allow access to the IP address and subnet mask
that have been assigned to the remote group.
Creating and Deleting Groups by Name
To create a local group by name:
1. Select User Management > Groups from the menu. The Groups screen displays. (The
following figure contains one example.)
Figure 82.
The List of Groups table displays the local groups with the following fields:
• Name. The name of the group, which is the defining characteristic of the group.
• Brief Description. An optional brief description of the group.
• Action. The Edit table button, which provides access to the Edit Group screen, and
the Delete table button, which allows you to delete the group.
