The Filter Manager<br />

Timeout: The amount of idle time (in minutes) before a override request<br />

session times out.<br />

Font Size: The size of the font to be used in the override request reports.<br />

Report Lines: The number of lines to be displayed in each override request<br />

report page.<br />

E-Mail Address: If set, override requests will be sent to this email address.<br />

By default, this is the email address of the <strong>iPrism</strong> administrator. (This<br />

option is only available under the iprism account.)<br />

E-Mail Preference: By default, an email will be sent for each request. If<br />

this is set to Daily Consolidation, one email containing all requests will be<br />

sent each day.<br />

Daily Request Limit: The maximum number of requests that can be made<br />

by all users in a given day. (This option is only available under the iprism<br />

account.)<br />

Assigned Categories - Allow<br />

Assigned Categories - Deny<br />

For both of these fields, you can select the default categories used by the<br />

system when creating a filter to unblock a URL (Allow) or to block a URL<br />

(Deny). The default settings (‘local allow’ and ‘local deny’) are<br />

recommended unless you always use the same categories when adding a<br />

filter. Administrators can always override the default category when<br />

creating the filter. (This option is only available under the iprism account.)<br />

Grant Pending Request Preference: In previous versions of <strong>iPrism</strong>, when<br />

access is granted for a specific URL, a custom filter is created and the URL<br />

is rated as local ratings, such as ‘local allow’. If you use an override to grant<br />

access, the outcome is not the same. The URL keeps its original rating<br />

provided by St. Bernard Software, but the Blocked action is overridden and<br />

the URL request goes through. This enables you to see the original rating of<br />

the URL for reporting purposes. The difference is invisible to the end user.<br />

If you have partitions enabled, the Delegated Partition Administrator can<br />

only use an override to grant access.<br />

Local Category Descriptions: Each of the local categories may be given<br />

a unique description. These descriptions will be displayed on the<br />

category selection panels that exist in the Filter Manager,<br />

Configuration Manager, and Reports.<br />
