What To Do? actions

What To Do? actions determine the outcome of content rules. They specify how the Gateway should handle content that has been detected.

Each content rule operates with a principal What To Do? action called a Primary Action. For example, in a Detect Virus content rule on a ICAP Gateway, the Primary Action might be Continue to the next rule.

Each web policy route also has a specified default action, which applies when none of the attached content rules are detected and acted on.

To find out more about configuring primary actions, see Primary Actions.

You can add additional What Else To Do? actions to a content rule. For example, when blocking communication, you might want to Generate an Inform to notify an administrator.
