Enterprise or Service Provider Customer Important: This document is for use by Enterprise customers only. The way in which custom policies are applied to your users varies depending on whether you are classified as a service provider or enterprise customer. If you are a service provider customer, each domain can have one custom policy (see Figure 7). If you are an enterprise customer, a single default policy applies to all domains. Thus, for an enterprise customer, you must create a group or groups of users, and for each group, you can create a custom policy. A group can be created according to domain membership (see Figure 8) or according to any other user characteristics that may apply across multiple domains (see Figure 9). For procedures, see Create a Group in Account Management Administrator Guide. Note: Because a group defined by an enterprise customer can contain users from different domains, a group policy does not apply to a domain, but rather to the group of users to which it is defined. A custom group policy supersedes the default policy that is assigned to all domains. November 2012 Proprietary: Not for use or disclosure outside McAfee without written permission 39

Enterprise or Service Provider
Customer
Important:
This document is for use by Enterprise customers only.
The way in which custom policies are applied to your users varies depending on whether
you are classified as a service provider or enterprise customer. If you are a service
provider customer, each domain can have one custom policy (see Figure 7). If you are an
enterprise customer, a single default policy applies to all domains. Thus, for an enterprise
customer, you must create a group or groups of users, and for each group, you can create a
custom policy. A group can be created according to domain membership (see Figure
8
) or
according to any other user characteristics that may apply across multiple domains (see
Figure
9
). For procedures, see
Create a Group
in
Account Management Administrator
Guide
.
Note:
Because a group defined by an enterprise customer can contain users from different
domains, a group policy does not apply to a domain, but rather to the group of users to
which it is defined. A custom group policy supersedes the default policy that is assigned to
all domains.
