Configuring Inheritance Filters

The “Inheritance Filters” screen, under Console > Management > Inheritance Filters, is used to create inheritance filters by selecting screens available under the “Inheritance Filter Detail” panel.

To create a new filter, enter a name for this filter in the “Name” field. Then check the boxes next to the screens, or screen groups, you wish to inherit. This screen is enhanced to automatically select or deselect dependent data screens, based upon the related screens chosen by you.

You must then select the appropriate “Access” for each user type: Administrators, Operators, End Users, and Guest users. These selections are made using the corresponding drop down menus.

After you have made the desired screen and access selections, click Add to finish creating the new inheritance filter. This new filter is now available in the Filter drop down menu on the Firewall > System > Tools screen.
