Defining an ICAP rule

When there are multiple jobs running at the same time, it may be necessary to limit the number of ICAP parallel scans. To do so, we must define a specific File Transfer Rule.

To create a new Rule, click the New Rule button at the top right-hand corner. The New Rule dialog window will appear.

Select the Create your rule option.

In the new window, assign a name to the rule in the New rule field. Use the name ICAP rule to easily recognize it among other rules.

Then, you can set the limit of concurrent ICAP scans in the TO edit box. If you set the limit to 0 no scans will be performed.

Now you can select the conditions in the drop-down lists on the left and the attribute on the right.
To properly configure an ICAP rule you must set these conditions and attributes:

Condition	Attribute
Direction	Outbound
Role	Client
Cluster	Select the Cluster onto which you want to limit ICAP scans

You will also need to add two new conditions to the rule by clicking the Add condition button:

Condition	Attribute
Destination	ICAP
Protocol	CMD

On the right of the window, use the WHEN section to define the time interval when the Rule will be applied.

Once you have defined all the attributes for your ICAP rule, click Save. Your Rule is now visible in the Home Page.
