Anti-Virus Policies
The following features are available in the Anti-Virus Policies section:
• Disable policing from Trusted to Public - Unchecked, this option enforces anti-virus
policies on computers located on Trusted Zones. Choosing this option allows computers on
a trusted zone (such as a LAN) to access computers on public zones (such as DMZ), even
if anti-virus software is not installed on the LAN computers.
• Days before forcing update - This feature defines the maximum number of days may
access the Internet before the SonicWALL requires the latest virus date files to be
downloaded.
• Force update on alert - SonicWALL, Inc. broadcasts virus alerts to all SonicWALL
appliances with an Anti-Virus subscription. Three levels of alerts are available, and you may
select more than one. When an alert is received with this option selected, users are
upgraded to the latest version of VirusScan ASaP before they can access the Internet. This
option overrides the Maximum number of days allowed before forcing update selection. In
addition, every virus alert is logged, and an alert message is sent to the administrator.
