Extension-Specific Policy Module Reference
Chapter 11 Policies 521
numEntries
Specifies the total number of sites to be contained or allowed in the extension.
This can be set to
0
specifying that no sites can be contained in the extension or
to
n
specifies the total number of sites to be included in the extension; it must be
an integer greater than zero. The default is
3
.
Note that when you set the value of this parameter, each site has its own set of
configuration parameters and you must specify appropriate values for each of
those parameters; otherwise the policy rule will return an error. Each set of
configuration parameters is distinguished by
<n>
, which is an integer derived
from the value you assign in this field. For example, if you set the
numEntries
parameter to 2,
<n>
would be
0
and
1
.
