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.

The interface allows you to:

• Create a new domain blacklist / whitelist

• Edit a domain blacklist / whitelist

• Delete a domain blacklist / whitelist

Create a new domain blacklist / whitelist

• Click 'Configure' > 'Policy Settings' > 'B/W Lists'
  

• Click 'Create B/W List' at the top right

• Enter an appropriate name for the list in the 'Name' field. 

• Enter a short description for the B/W list in the 'Remark' field, if required.

• Click 'Next' or 'Settings' to add domains you want to blacklist or white-list.

• Select Whitelist' or 'Blacklist' as required and enter the domain name without the 'http://' or 'https://' prefix.

• Click the '+' button to add the domain to the rule. Repeat the process to add more domain names.

• To remove a domain name, click the trash can icon
  

• Click the 'Create' button at the bottom of the dialog when finished

The domains will be added to B/W list and the list will be available for selection when creating a policy.

Editing a domain blacklist / whitelist

• To update a B/W list, click the edit  button beside the rule

The 'Update B/W List' dialog will appear. The dialog is similar to 'Create B/W List' dialog explained above.

• Modify the name, description and/or domains in the B/W list as per your requirements.

• Click the 'Update' button.

Please note that the policy/policies containing the B/W list will also be updated according to the new settings and name.

Deleting a domain blacklist / whitelist

Please note that you cannot delete a B/W list that is currently active in a policy. You have to disable the B/W lists in all policies before deleting it.

• Click the trash can icon  beside a B/W list to delete it.

A confirmation dialog will be displayed.
