Chapter 10: Policies for Access Control

150

Adding a Policy

If you create a policy that denies access (Deny) to a node group or
device group, you also must create a policy that allows access (Control)
for the selected node group or device group. Users will not automatically
receive Control rights when the Deny policy is not in effect.

Note 1: When CC-SG is in Proxy or Both mode, you can give users
access to virtual media on KXII devices. However, users can only use
VKC in Proxy or Both mode. MPC is not supported in Proxy mode. See

Connection Modes: Direct and Proxy

(on page 219).

To add a policy:

1. Choose Associations > Policies. The Policy Manager window opens.

2. Click Add. A dialog window appears, requesting a name for the

policy.

3. Type a name for the new policy in the Enter policy name field. See

Naming Conventions

(on page 353) for details on CC-SG's rules for

name lengths.

4. Click OK. The new policy will be added to the Policy Name list in the

Policy Manager screen.

5. Click the Device Group drop-down arrow, and select the Device

Group to which this policy governs access.

6. Click the Node Group drop-down arrow and select the Node Group

to which this policy governs access.

7. If the policy will cover only one type of group, select a value only for

that type.

8. Click the Days drop-down arrow, and then select which days of the

week this policy covers: All days, Weekday (Monday through Friday
only) and Weekend (Saturday and Sunday only), or Custom (select
specific days).

9. Select Custom to select your own set of days. The individual day

checkboxes will become enabled.

10. Select the checkbox that corresponds to each day you want this

policy to cover.

11. In the Start Time field, type the time of day this policy goes into

effect. The time must be in 24-Hour format.

12. In the End Time field, type the time of day this policy ends. The time

must be in 24-Hour format.
