Manage Domain Blacklist and Whitelist


Black and white lists let you block or allow specific domains. Black/white lists are often used to create exceptions to security/category rules.

  • You can add specific websites to a blacklist or whitelist according to your organization's web security policies.
  • Black and whitelists over-rule category and security rules. E.g. - If you block shopping sites in a category rule, but add 'shop.com' to the whitelist, then 'shop.com' is allowed.
  • If you enable 'Only B/W Mode' when configuring a policy, then only the black and white lists are consulted. All security and category rules are ignored.
  • Click 'Configure' > 'Policy Settings' > 'B/W Lists' to open the 'B/W Lists' area:




    The list of B/W list rules will be displayed.
