5.3.7 Assigning policies to clients

There are two main rules for assigning policies to clients:

Local (primary) clients can be assigned any local policy or any policy replicated from upper servers.

Clients replicated from lower servers can be assigned any local policy with the Down replicable attribute or any policy

replicated from upper servers. They cannot be forced to adopt policies from their own primary server (to do so, you

must connect to that server with ERAC).

An important feature is that each client is assigned some policy (there is no such thing as clients with no policy). Also, you

cannot take a policy away from a client. You can only replace it with another policy. If you do not want to apply

a configuration from any policy to a client, create an empty policy.

5.3.7.1 Default Primary Clients Policy

One method of assigning policies is automatic application of the Default Primary Clients Policy, a virtual policy that is

configurable in Global Policy Settings. This policy is applied to primary clients, i.e. those directly connected to that ERAS.

For more information see chapter Virtual policies .

5.3.7.2 Manual assigning

There are two ways to manually assign policies: Right-click a client in the Clients pane and select Add Policy from the

context menu, or click Add Clients > Add/Remove in the Policy Manager.

Clicking Add Clients in the Policy Manager opens the Add/Remove dialog window. Clients are listed on the left in the

format Server/Client. If the Down replicable policy is selected, the window will also list clients replicated from lower

servers. Select clients to receive the policy by using the drag-and-drop method or clicking >> to move them to Selected

items. Newly selected clients will have a yellow asterisk and can still be removed from Selected items by clicking the << or

C button. Click OK to confirm the selection.

NOTE: After confirming, if you reopen the Add/Remove dialog window, clients cannot be removed from Selected items,

you can only replace the policy.

You can also add clients using the Add Special feature, which can add all clients at once, add selected clients or add clients

from selected servers or groups.

5.3.7.3 Policy Rules

The Policy Rules tool allows an administrator to automatically assign policies to client workstations in a more

comprehensive way. Rules are applied immediately after the client connects to the server; they have priority over the

Default Primary Clients Policy and over manual assigning. The Default Primary Clients Policy only applies if the client

does not fall under any current rules. Likewise, if there is a manually assigned policy to be applied and it is in conflict with

the policy rules, the configuration forced by the policy rules will take precedence.

Policy rules have a tab within the Policy Manager, where they can be created and managed. The process of creation and

application is very similar to that of rule creation and management in email clients: each rule can contain one or more

criteria, the higher the rule is in the list, the more important it is (it can be moved up or down).

To create a new rule, click the New... button. Then enter a Name, Description, Client filter parameter and Policy

(a policy that will be applied to any clients matching the specified criteria).

To configure the filtering criteria, click the Edit button.

The available criteria are:

(NOT) FROM Primary Server – if (not) located on primary server

IS (NOT) New Client – if it is (not) a new client

HAS (NOT) New Flag – applies to clients with/without the New Client flag.

Primary Server (NOT) IN (specify) – if name of the primary server contains/does not contain...

ERA GROUPS IN (specify) – if client belongs to the group…

ERA GROUPS NOT IN (specify) – if client does not belong to the group…

DOMAIN/WORKGROUP (NOT) IN (specify) – if client belongs/does not belong to the domain…

Computer Name Mask (specify) – if computer name is ....

HAS IP Mask (specify) – if client belongs to the group defined by the IP address and mask…
