Step 3: Assign computers to screening groups

After setting up the content categories and sites that are blocked and approved for a screening group, you
can assign computers to that screening group.

To set up computer assignments, use the Settings area of the Assign Computers to Screening Groups page.

To assign a computer to a particular group, click the radio button to the right of the computer in the column
of the desired group.

The Default Settings computer is a placeholder for any new computers that join the local network. For
example, if you buy a new computer or bring a laptop home from work for the first time, when you add this
new computer to your local network it automatically acquires the default access configuration you have
specified. Initially, you should use the maximum amount of screening as the default and then reduce the
level of blocked content as needed.
