Note:
Only one template can be set as the default template. To specify a different default template, save your edits to the current template and switch to the template you want to configure as the default.

Active time window
Do one of the following:
*If you want to restrict access to particular days of a week, then under Days, select the required days you want the server to be available to the user.
*If you want to restrict access to particular time slots, then under Time selector, click . Select the From Time and To Time from the lists, respectively.
File name filters
You can configure the file name filters to allow or deny commands (Upload, Download, List, Rename) for files that match a specified pattern. For example, you can restrict a user from uploading files that end with ".exe".
*When you configure the file name filters for Listener Preferences and Users, the User file name filer configuration overrides the Listener Preferences configuration.
*The file name filter is applied on the filename received by the server. For example, if a .pdf file is uploaded after changing the file extension to .txt, then webMethods.io MFT considers it as a .txt file when applying the filters.
Patterns
Click to add one or more patterns to restrict particular actions for certain files, and specify the following details:
*Command: Select a command ( List, Download, Upload or Rename) from the list.
*Filter type: Select a filter type (Starts with, Ends with, or Contains) from the list.
*File name: Type a portion of the file name that the Filter type criterion should evaluate (for example, “exe”).
Note:
Any characters except wildcard characters and regular expressions are permitted. ActiveTransfer Server treats those characters as part of the file name.
Block paths matching these patterns
Click to restrict access to specific folders in the file system, and specify the following details:
*Pattern and Actions: Type the folder path you want to block.
Tip:
You can use simple pattern matching by preceding the pattern with the tilde (~) character. For example, to deny user access to the folder /system/bin, you must type: ~/system/bin/*
