Scope name

Field for entering the scan scope name. This name is displayed in the Scan scopes table in the Scan settings section.

The entry field must not be blank.

Use this scope

This check box enables or disables scans of this scope by the application.

If this check box is selected, the application processes this scan scope.

If this check box is cleared, the application does not process this scan scope. You can later include this scope in the component settings by selecting the check box.

The check box is selected by default.

File system, access protocol, and path

You can select the type of file system in the drop-down list:

• Local (default value) – local directories. If this item is selected, you need to indicate the path to the local directory.
• Mounted – Mounted remote or local directories. If this item is selected, you need to indicate the protocol or name of the file system.
• Shared — The protected server's file system resources accessible via the Samba or NFS protocol.
• All remote mounted – all remote directories mounted on the device using the Samba and NFS protocols.
• All shared — All of the protected server's file system resources accessible via the Samba and NFS protocols.

Access protocol

You can select the remote access protocol in the drop-down list:

• NFS: remote directories mounted on a device using the NFS protocol.
• Samba: remote directories mounted on a device using the Samba protocol.
• Custom – resources of the device's file system specified in the field below.

This drop-down list is available if the Shared or Mounted type is selected in the drop-down list of file systems.

Path

This is the entry field for specifying the path to the directory that you want to include in the scan scope. You can use masks and tags to specify the path.

The / path is specified by default – the application scans all directories of the local file system.

This field is available if the Local type is selected in the drop-down list of file systems.

If the Local type is selected in the drop-down list of file systems, and the path is not specified, the application scans all directories of the local file system.

Name of shared resource

The field for entering the name of the file system shared resource, where the directories that you want to add to the scan scope are located.

The field is available if the Mounted type is selected in the File system drop-down list and the Custom item is selected in the Access protocol drop-down list.

Masks

The list contains name masks for the objects that the application scans.

By default the list contains the * mask (all objects).

You can add, edit, or delete masks.
