Manage URL and Content Filtering Profiles

• Click 'URL Filter' in the left-hand menu to open the filter configuration screen

• The web filter allows you to control which websites your end-users can access.

• You need to create a URL/content filter profile to implement this feature. The profile can then be added to a firewall rule

There are two elements of a URL profile:

• A website category filter.

• A whitelist / blacklist of specific websites.

Once created, URL profiles can be activated in the 'Web Protection' section of a firewall rule. See Web Protection Settings for help with this.

• Profiles created for an organization are available to all devices in that organization.

• Profiles created for an individual device are only be available to that device.
  

Open the URL filter interface

• Click 'URL Filter' on the left

Create a URL Filter Profile

URL filter profiles are constructed from the following two items:

• Content categories - Web pages with content which falls into a chosen category will be automatically blocked

• URL Whitelist/Blacklist - Users can access whitelisted addresses. Blacklisted addresses will be blocked. These lists are often used to create exceptions for sites blocked (or allowed) by content categories.

To create a URL filtering profile

• Click 'URL Filter' on the left

• Select an organization/device from the drop-down in the title bar

• Click the 'Add a New URL Filter Profile' button at the top-left of the interface.

Complete the following details in the form:

• Name - Friendly label to identify the purpose of the profile.

• 'Filter pages known to have...' - Choose website categories that you want to block:

• 'Custom black and whitelists' - Specify URLs you want to allow or block. Black and whitelists are usually created to provide exceptions to the categories you have allowed/blocked.

• 'Allow the following sites' – Whitelisted websites. Users are allowed to access the sites you type here.

• 'Block the following sites' – Blacklisted websites. Users are not allowed to access sites you type here.

• Click 'Save'.

The profile is now available in the 'URL Filter' drop-down when creating/editing a firewall rule.

• Repeat the process to add more filter profiles.
