To Select a Clearance for a Multilevel Session

The session clearance sets the top boundary for labels of files that you will be able to access in the session. To set the clearance, you use the Clearance Builder dialog box (see Figure 2-5).

  1. To use the default clearance in the Clearance field, click OK (or press Enter) and wait for the Trusted Solaris environment to be displayed.

    For a different clearance, go to step 2 to build a new clearance.

  2. Click the desired classification in the classification selection area.

  3. Click the desired compartments (if any) in the compartments selection area.

  4. Check the clearance you have built in the selected clearance field. Click OK or press Enter if it is correct or go back to step 2 to build a different clearance.
