Product Context

If you have only one of any Barracuda Networks product type connected to the Barracuda Control 
Server, when you click on that product link in the Cloud Control pane or in the Unit Health pane, the 
web interface for that individual device displays. From the product web interface, you manage the 
individual settings just as you would if you logged into the device directly.

Exceptions

When you have more than one of a Barracuda Networks product type connected to the Barracuda 
Control Server, and you view the settings of all of them as a group (with one web interface as 
described above), a yellow 

Exception

 (

) icon displays if the value of the setting is not the same on 

all devices in the group. When you hover the mouse over the icon, the Barracuda Control Server 
clearly indicates what the values for that setting are on each device, so that you can change the settings 
if desired. See 

Dealing With Exceptions

 for more information and examples.
