UIDE
(LDAP) is a directory service protocol based on entries
(Distinguished Names).
M86 supplied category
- A library category that was
created by M86, and includes a list of URLs, URL keywords,
and search engine keywords to be blocked.
machine name
- Pertains to the name of the user’s work-
station machine (computer).
master IP group
- An IP group set up in the tree menu in
the Policy section of the console, comprised of sub-groups
and/or individual IP filtering profiles.
master list
- A list of additional URLs that is uploaded to a
custom category’s URLs window.
minimum filtering level
- A set of library categories and
service ports defined at the global level to be blocked or
opened. If the minimum filtering level is established, it is
applied in conjunction with a user’s filtering profile. If a user
does not belong to a group, or the user’s group does not
have a filtering profile, the default (global) filtering profile is
used, and the minimum filtering level does not apply to that
user. If the minimum filtering level is set up to block a library
category, this setting will override an always allowed setting
for that category in a user’s profile. Minimum filtering level
settings can be overridden by profile settings made in over-
ride accounts, exception URL settings, and use of the
“bypass all” Rule setting.
mobile mode
- The operations mode used on a Web Filter
configured for filtering end users on machines located
outside of the in-house network.
name resolution
- A process that occurs when the Web
Filter attempts to resolve the IP address of the authentica-
tion server with the machine name of that server. This
continuous and regulated automated procedure ensures the
connection between the two servers is maintained.
