New method as of Netsweeper 7.2.11

In the Netsweeper version 7.2.11 and later Webadmin, the Client Exception List can then be selected in the client filter brand. The brands are accessed from Tools / Client Filter Settings / <name>

When adding a List to the Brand, make sure the List is created and populated before assigning it to the Brand. Once the list is added to the brand, any changes to the list will apply to the brand.
