Create your own templates if you have configured digital asset definitions. A template combines digital asset definitions and logical operators (And, Or, Except) to form condition statements.
OfficeScan evaluates condition statements from left to right. Use logical operators carefully when configuring condition statements. Incorrect usage leads to an erroneous condition statement that will likely produce unexpected results.
See the examples in the following table.
|
Sample Condition Statements |
|
Condition Statement |
Interpretation and Example |
|
[Definition 1] |
A file must satisfy [Definition 1] and [Definition 2] but not [Definition 3]. For example: A file must be [an Adobe PDF document] and must contain [an email address] but should not contain [all of the keywords in the keyword list]. |
|
[Definition 1] |
A file must satisfy [Definition 1] or [Definition 2]. For example: A file must be [an Adobe PDF document] or [a Microsoft Word document]. |
|
Except [Definition 1] |
A file must not satisfy [Definition 1]. For example: A file must not be [a multimedia file]. |
As the last example in the table illustrates, the first digital asset definition in the condition statement can have the "Except" operator if a file must not satisfy all of the digital asset definitions in the statement. In most cases, however, the first digital asset definition does not have an operator.
To add a template:
Networked Computers > Digital Asset Control > Templates
Click Add. A new screen displays.
Type a name for the template. The name must not exceed 100 bytes in length and cannot contain the following characters:
> < * ^ | & ? \ /
Type a description that does not exceed 256 bytes in length.
Select digital asset definitions and then click the "add" icon 
.
When selecting definitions:
Select multiple entries by pressing and holding the CTRL key and then selecting the definitions.
Use the search feature if you have a specific definition in mind. You can type the full or partial name of the definition.
Each template can contain a maximum of 30 definitions.
To create a new expression, click 
Expressions and then click 
Add new expression. In the screen that appears, configure settings for the expression.
To create a new file attribute list, click 
File attributes and then click 
Add new file attribute. In the screen that appears, configure settings for the file attribute list.
To create a new keyword list, click 
Keywords and then click 
Add new keyword. In the screen that appears, configure settings for the keyword list.
If you selected an expression, type the number of occurrences, which is the number of times an expression must occur before OfficeScan subjects it to a Digital Asset Control policy.
Choose a logical operator for each definition.
Use logical operators carefully when configuring condition statements. Incorrect usage leads to an erroneous condition statement that will likely produce unexpected results. For examples of correct usage, see Condition Statements and Logical Operators.
To remove a definition from the list of selected definitions, click the trash bin icon 
.
Below Preview, check the condition statement and make changes if this is not your intended statement.
