Mount point settings

Setting	Description
File system, access protocol and path	The settings block lets you set the location of the mount point. In the drop-down list of file systems, you can select the type of file system where the directories that you want to add to scan exclusions are located: Local: local mount points. Mounted: remote directories mounted on the device using the Samba or NFS protocol. All remote mounted – all remote directories mounted on the device using the Samba and NFS protocols.
	If Mounted is selected in the drop-down list of file systems, you can select the remote access protocol in the drop-down list on the right: NFS: remote directories mounted on a device using the NFS protocol. Samba: remote directories mounted on a device using the Samba protocol. Custom: all the resources of the device file system specified in the field below.
	If Local is selected in the drop-down list of file systems, then in the input field you can enter a path to a mount point that you want to exclude from file operation interception. You can use masks to specify the path. You can use the `` (asterisk) character to create a file or directory name mask. You can indicate a single `` character to represent any set of characters (including an empty set) preceding the `/` character in the file or directory name. For example, `/dir//file` or `/dir///file`. You can indicate two consecutive `` characters to represent any set of characters (including an empty set and the `/` character) in the file or directory name. For example, `/dir/*/file/` or `/dir/file/`. The `` mask can be used only once in a directory name. For example, `/dir///file` is an incorrect mask. To exclude the mount point `/dir`, you need to specifically indicate `/dir` (no asterisk). The mask `/dir/` excludes all mount points at the level below `/dir` but not `/dir` itself. The `/dir/*` mask excludes all mount points below the level of `/dir` but not `/dir` itself. You can use a single `?` character to represent any one character in the file or directory name.
Filesystem name	The field for entering the name of the file system where the directories that you to exclude from file operation interception are located. The field is available if the Mounted type is selected in the drop-down list of file systems and the Custom item is selected in the drop-down list on the right.
