6.3 Schedule

MH-2001 allows the Administrator to configure a schedule for policies to take affect. By creating a schedule,

the Administrator is allowing MH-2001 policies to be used at those designated times only. Any activities

outside of the scheduled time slot will not follow MH-2001 policies therefore will likely not be permitted to pass

through MH-2001. The Administrator can configure the start time and stop time, as well as creating 2 different

time periods in a day. For example, an organization may only want MH-2001 to allow the LAN network users

to access the Internet during work hours. Therefore, the Administrator may create a schedule to allow

MH-2001 to work Monday-Friday, 8AM - 5PM only. During the non-work hours, MH-2001 will not allow

Internet access.
