The anatomy of a policy - date range

Options on the date range tab are used to set any date / time limitations for a policy:  

By default, the date range tab is set to continuous, which means that there are no date or time restrictions associated with the policy. Alternatively, specific to and from dates can be set so that the policy has a start/end time, or a detailed schedule can be set.

Using the advanced schedule

The advanced schedule works by selecting days of the week that the policy is active or inactive. Each day is split into time intervals, which can be adjusted using a sliding scale at the bottom of the window; this means that policies can be set to run on precise days at precise times.

To use the advanced schedule, click the use advanced schedule radio button and then click add. The example below shows how the schedule is used to create a policy that is only active at weekends:

To update an existing schedule, select its name and click edit. Similarly, click delete to remove the selected schedule.
