Antivirus
Antivirus provides configuration access to most of the antivirus options you enable
when you create a firewall protection profile. While antivirus settings are configured for
system-wide use, you can implement specific settings on a per profile basis.
Table 25 describes the antivirus settings and where to configure and access them. To
access protection profile antivirus options go to Firewall > Protection Profile, select
edit or Create New, and select Anti-Virus. See “Protection profile options” on
page 223.
