Notification List

The Notification List menu allows you to configure a list of viruses. This virus list provides a list for scanning viruses in MMS messages. You can use one virus list in multiple MMS profiles, and configure multiple virus lists.

Notification list configuration settings

The following are notification list configuration settings in Security Profiles > Carrier > Notification List.

Name                                           The name of the MMS content checksum list that you created.

Comments                                  A description given to the MMS notification list.

Ref.                                              Displays the number of times the object is referenced to other objects. For example, av_1 profile is applied to a security policy; on the Profile page (Security Profiles > Antivirus > Profiles), 1 appears in Ref. .

To view the location of the referenced object, select the number in Ref., and the Object Usage window appears displaying the various locations of the referenced object.

To view more information about how the object is being used, use one of the following icons that is avialable within the Object Usage window:

• View the list page for these objects – automatically redirects you to the list page where the object is referenced at.

• Edit this object – modifies settings within that particular setting that the object is referenced with. For example, av_1 profile is referenced with a security policy and so, when this icon is selected, the user is redirected to the Edit Policy page.

• View the details for this object – table, similar to the log viewer table, contains information about what settings are configured within that par- ticular setting that the object is referenced with. For example, av_1 profile is referenced with a security policy, and that security policy’s settings appear within the table.
