Command filter attributes

When adding or editing a Permit or Deny entry, you define specific attributes.

Purpose

Command filter attributes are associated with Permit or Deny entries. Permit entries take precedence over Deny entries.

Parameters

Position
Refers to the location where the current entry resides in the Permit or Deny list.
Expression
Contains the regular expression that the command will be checked against before being permitted or denied during an IDT session.
Match Criteria
This attribute can have one of two values:
  • Match Exactly: — The command is checked for an exact match against the expression.
  • Contains: — The command is checked to see if it contains the expression.
Match Case
This attribute can have one of three values:
  • Match As Is: — The case of the command will remain as is (unchanged) when matched against the expression.
  • Convert to Upper: — The case of the command entered will be converted to upper case before it is matched against the expression.
  • Convert to Lower: — The case of the command entered will be converted to lower case before it is matched against the expression.
Trim
Select True or False to specify whether the command filter should remove leading and trailing whitespace before matching. The default value is True, which removes trailing and leading whitespace.
Ignore
Specify whether this filter is active (true) or inactive (false).
Description
Optionally, enter a description of a maximum of 30 characters.
