Current Rules Strategy

example.gif When specifying multiple rules in the Current Rules list, we recommend that you employ an inverted pyramid model, where you put rules with the broadest reach, or highest probability of matching, at the top of the list. Those that are more narrowly defined (less likely to trigger a match) should be placed towards the bottom of the list.

This organization is most efficient because the filter can eliminate the greatest proportion of traffic with the fewest number of evaluations.
