Cisco Cisco Email Security Appliance C170 Guia Do Utilizador

The Mail Policies and Content Filters access privileges define a delegated administrator’s level of access 
to the incoming and outgoing mail policies and content filters on the Email Security appliance. You can 
assign specific mail policies and content filters to a custom user role, allowing only the delegated 
administrators belonging to this role, along with operators and administrators, to manage the mail 
policies and content filters.

All delegated administrators with this access privilege can view the default incoming and outgoing mail 
policies but they can only edit these policies if they have full access. 

All delegated administrators with access privileges can create new content filters to use with their mail 
policies. A content filter created by a delegated administrator is available to the other delegated 
administrators assigned to the custom user role. Content filters that are not assigned to any custom user 
role are public and can be viewed by all delegated administrators with the mail policy access privilege. 
Content filters created by operators and administrators are public by default. Delegated administrators 
can enable or disable any existing content filters on mail policies assigned to their custom user role, but 
they cannot modify or delete public content filters.

If a delegated administrator deletes a content filter used by mail policies other than their own, or if the 
content filter is assigned to other custom user roles, AsyncOS does not delete the content filter from the 
system. AsyncOS instead unlinks the content filter from the custom user role and removes it from the 
delegated administrator’s mail policies. The content filter remains available to other custom user roles 
and mail policies.

Delegated administrators can use any text resource or dictionary in their content filters, but they cannot 
access the Text Resources or Dictionaries pages in the GUI to view or modify them. Delegated 
administrators also cannot create new text resources or dictionaries.

For outgoing mail policies, delegated administrators can enable or disable DLP policies but they cannot 
customize the DLP settings unless they also have DLP policy privileges.

You can assign one of the following access levels for mail policies and content filters to a custom user 
role:

No access: Delegated administrators cannot view or edit mail policies and content filters on the 
Email Security appliance.

View assigned, edit assigned: Delegated administrators can view and edit the mail policies and 
content filters assigned to the custom user role and create new content filters. Delegated 
administrators can edit a policy’s Anti-Spam, Anti-Virus, and Outbreak Filters settings. They can 
enable their content filters for the policy, as well as disable any existing content filter assigned to 
the policy, regardless of whether they are responsible for it. Delegated administrators cannot modify 
a mail policy’s name or its senders, recipients, or groups. Delegated administrators can modify the 
order of the content filters for mail policies assigned to their custom user role. 

View all, edit assigned: Delegated administrators can view all mail policies and content filters on 
the appliance, but they can only edit the ones assigned to the custom user role.

View all, edit all (full access): Delegated administrators have full access to all of the mail policies and 
content filters on the appliance, including the default mail policies, and have the ability to create new 
mail policies. Delegated administrators can modify the senders, recipients, and groups of all mail 
policies. They can also reorder mail policies. 

You can assign individual mail policies and content filters to the custom user role using either the Email 
Security Manager or the Custom User Roles for Delegated Administration table on the User Roles page.

User Roles for Delegated Administration table to assign mail policies and content filters.
