Managing the STM's Performance Performance management consists of controlling the traffic through the STM so that the necessary traffic gets through when there is a bottleneck and either reducing unnecessary traffic or rescheduling some traffic to low-peak times to prevent bottlenecks from occurring in the first place. If you want to reduce traffic by preventing unwanted emails from reaching their destinations or by preventing access to certain sites on the Internet, you can use the STM's content filtering feature. By default, this feature is disabled; all requested traffic from any website is allowed with the exception of Web content categories that are mentioned in Default Email and Web Scan Settings on page 85. 82 | Chapter 3. Performing Network and System Management
