How to assign a default blocking plan?

Dyknow's Blocking Plan feature enables Dyknow Teachers to block or allow student device access to select websites and/or applications during an active monitoring session.  

A Blocking Plan must be enforced during a monitoring session in order to be active, but a Default Blocking Plan can be assigned to a class. When a Default Blocking Plan is assigned to a class, it will be automatically enforced when you start a monitoring session for that same class.

• Assign a Default Blocking Plan 
• Remove an assigned Default Blocking Plan
