ComSifter CS-8D Pro
2–10
Warning:
A good understanding of each method is advised, as this will not be easy to
change once you have started installing and configuring your ComSifter.
Once the Authentication Method has been chosen, you will then need to determine:
How will the ComSifter get a list of my users?
In this step, you will determine how the ComSifter will get a list of your users. This list may be generated from a
flat file, entered into a database in the ComSifter itself, or retrieved from your Active Directory if your network is
Active Directory-based.
User Management Utilities
(refer to the table outlining Steps 3a through 3d) explains in
detail the different methods that are used to determine your usernames.
After usernames are entered, the next question is:
How many filters will I need?
Next you will need to determine how many filters you will need, how to label those filters, and how those filters
will need to be configured.
Chapter 4, Filter Setup
explains this in detail.
The final question is:
What filter will each user be assigned to?
Next, we need to assign users to filters. This may be done using the ComSifter’s own database, an external flat
file, or by way of Active Directory.
Warning:
Special care should be taken in this area, as how users are assigned to a filter
may be dependent on the Authentication Method you have chosen.
You are now ready to begin installing and configuring your ComSifter.
