With the help of the master rule collection which, the portal at runtime analyzes to determine which portal desktop should be displayed to the user  and there by  determines which contents to display to user. Master Rule collection is on of the main configurations of Netweaver Portal. There are ample of configuration options avaialble like you can configure the master rule for any specific individual user or you can configure it for URL, This means, if user is accessing the URL http://myportal.mycompany.com then upon verifying this URL, light contents should be displayed to the user. Your corporate or internal portal might contents 1000s of users and if we start configuring the master rule for all these users then this configuration will never end and thereby increases the load on the system. So it is better to configure the master rules for URL alias instead of User.
