or toolbar.
The status of the selected exception changes accordingly.
Deleting exception rules
To permanently delete an exception, select it on the Exception Rules tab, and then click
Delete on the shortcut menu or toolbar. The exception is removed from the Exceptions
tab.
Moving exception rules to another policy
You can easily move an exception from one policy to another from the Exception Rules
tab.
To move an exception rule to another policy:
1 Select the exception rule you want to move and click
Move to Another Policy on the
shortcut menu or the toolbar.
2 In the Select Policy list, select the policy and click OK.
A copy of the exception rule appears in the selected policy.
