Synchronized, Non-Synchronized Items
It is important to note that while some items are synchro-
nized to the target Web Filters, they do not become perma-
nent configurations on the target Web Filter. These items
are in essence functionally synchronized, since they are
configurations that the target Web Filters will read from the
source Web Filter upon load. These items will then be
updated on an as needed basis from the source Web Filter.
For purpose of differentiation, these items will be referred to
as functionally synchronized for purposes of this user guide.
These functionally synchronized items will be available for
use on the target Web Filter.
The following options are available for synchronization:
Synchronize all items (both profile and library changes), and
synchronize only library items.
As you will see by the lists on the following pages, static
configuration options—such as library changes—will be
synchronized. All active options—such as profile changes—
will be functionally synchronized. One time configuration
options on the Web Filter—such as reporting configurations,
or IP addresses—will not be synchronized.
