Modify a Policy Using the Setting Properties Dialog

Use the Setting Properties dialog to modify configuration policies to suit your specific requirements and environment. Settings that are displayed in gray have not been set. Unmanaged settings are indicated by the crossed-out table icon with a section reference mark.

Note: Before you can modify a policy, you must unseal it.

For example, to change the value of the default TCP port

1. Expand the following tree view items in the given order:
   • Configuration
   • Configuration Policy
   • Default Computer Policy
   • DSM
   • Common Components
   • Networking
   • Protocols
2. Click TCP.

   The TCP settings, their values, and their descriptions are shown in the TCP pane.

3. Right-click Port in the TCP pane and choose Setting Properties from the context menu.

   Alternatively, click Setting Properties in the Tasks portlet or double-click Port.

   The Setting Properties dialog opens.

4. In the Value field, change the value according to your needs. A value may be a string, number, or Boolean entry, depending on the type of parameter. This parameter expects an integer value.
5. Click OK.

   The new value is immediately shown in the list of settings and in the Details section.

Note: You can discard any changes you have made during an editing session by right-clicking the policy and clicking Discard Changes in the context menu that appears.
