After you select actions for a rule, name and enable the rule. You must also assign an order number that represents its position within the hierarchy of rules. InterScan™ Messaging Security Appliance (IMSA) allows you to add any notes to the rule that you think are necessary for future reference. You can also modify this information for an existing rule.
To finalize a new rule or modify an existing rule:
To allow IMSA to use the rule immediately, select the check box next to Enable. To preserve the rule for later use, clear the check box.
Next to Rule name, type a descriptive name.
Next to Order number, type a number that represents its position within the hierarchy of rules. The list of rules appears in the table.
To add notes, click the Notes tab and type any additional details that you or any other administrator might need to know about the rule.
Click the Rule tab.
If you are adding a new rule, do the following:
Verify that the information on the screen is correct. If any information about the rule is incorrect, click Previous and make your changes.
To save the rule, click Finish.
If you are modifying an existing rule, click Save.
The Policy screen appears showing your rule in the list.
