Check Policy

Use this tool to determine which policies apply to a specific client. The results are specific to the current day and time.

Steps

  1. Click Check Policy in the Toolbox.
  2. To identify a directory or computer client, enter either:
    • A fully qualified user name

      To browse or search the directory to identify the user, click Find User (see Identifying a user to check policy or test filtering).

    • An IP address
  3. Click Go.

Next steps

The name of one or more policies is displayed in a popup window. Multiple policies are displayed only when no policy has been assigned to the user, but policies have been assigned to multiple groups, domains, or organizational units to which the user belongs.

Even if multiple policies are shown, only one policy is enforced for a user at any given time (see Enforcement order).
