MWG7 - General Toughts

Thanks . Your screeshots are very helpful.  I agree with this post :  Mcafee has not created any startup documentation where we can refer to for setting up a new MWG 7 environment. I have done most of my policies with a trial and error until they worked.

I am now starting to look at integrating WCCP for un-authenticated users (users who bring thier own PC's and use them on our network) we want to force them through WCCP so at least they get scanned for malware and other rules such as not allowing them to stream video etc. (we already have setup the WCCP rules on our ASA.

Your screenshot was very helpful in getting me started especially the level where the rule should be placed.

For WCCP traffic, do I add the malware scan and other rules as a sub-rule set under the "AUthetication Server (WCCP)" rule set and have a stop cycle at the bottom of the sub ruleset so further processing will not occur?

Many thanks for this....got me going

To jrmetull,

We have un-authenticated users that we send through WCCP, but also seperaate rule sets for authenticated users and unauthenticated users.  You really don't have to do anything different configuration wise except set the enablement property for each rule set.  For my scenario, I have the following:

Content filter for Unauthenticated User:  Enable only if Authentication.IsAuthenticated equals False

Content filter for Authenticated User:  Enable only if Authentication.IsAuthenticated equals True

Immediately following those rule sets is the gateway antimalware rule set.
