Choosing a Web Reputation Source

Procedure

1. Click Smart Protection → Scan Service Settings from the left menu.
   The Scan Service Settings screen appears.
2. Under Web Reputation, select from the following options:
   1. Smart Protection Network: scans URLs via proxy from the Global Smart Protection Network.
   2. Click the Administration Proxy link and refer to Configuring Global Proxy Settings for information on how to configure the settings.
   3. Smart Protection Server: scans URLs using your private smart scan server.

      Note If your Local Smart Protection Server is unable to determine a URLs reputation, you have the option of allowing your system to query the Smart Protection Network. If you select the checkbox, Do not make external queries to Smart Protection Network, PortalProtect will only query the local smart scan server; if you clear the checkbox, PortalProtect can query the Smart Protection Network.

   4. Click the Smart Protection → Local Sources link to configure the Smart Protection Server(s). Refer to Smart Protection Source for instructions on how to configure this screen.
3. Click Save.

   Note Refer to Alerts for information on configuring your alerts when your smart servers are unavailable and/or come back online.
