Configuring dictionary groups
The Group tab lets you create groups of dictionary profiles.
Dictionary groups can be useful when you want to use multiple dictionary profiles during the same scan.
For example, you might have several dictionaries of prohibited words — one for each language — that you want to use to enforce your network usage policy. Rather than combining the dictionaries or creating multiple policies and multiple content profiles to apply each dictionary profile separately, you could simply group the dictionaries, then select that group in the content monitor profile.
Before you can create a dictionary group, you must first create one or more dictionary profiles. For more information about dictionary profiles, see
“Configuring dictionary profiles”.
To access this part of the web UI, your administrator account’s access profile must have
Read or
Read-Write permission to the
Policy category. For details, see
“About administrator account permissions and domains”.
