click the Users tab in the Access Policy Group or Domain window.

to display the Select Access Policy Group window.

3. Select a different option from the Assign selected Users to Access Policy Group

menu.

The users if once registered to the default Guest Access Policy Group, cannot be
moved to any other group.

Using Global Rules

Global Rules can be used to provide an “exception process” to the normal processing
of access rules via Access Policy Groups. IDM will check for Global Rules and apply
them to the designated users before processing any access rules found in Access
Policy Groups. For example, you can use a Global Rule to deny access to the network
during a specific time period, such as a site shutdown or during periods when network
maintenance is being done.

Global Rules are typically used to apply to all users in a domain. They can also be
defined to apply to a single user or access policy group. Global Rules should not take
the place of existing rules defined within the Access Policy Groups; they are intended
for special use cases.

To display global rules, select the Domain from the IDM navigation tree, then click
the Global Rules tab in the Domain display.
