URL Filter
URL (Uniform Resource Locator e.g. an address in the form of http://www.example.com ) filter
rules allow you to prevent users on your network from accessing particular websites from their
URL. There are no pre-defined URL filter rules; you can add filter rules to meet your requirements.
Keywords Filtering
Allows blocking by specific keywords within a particular URL rather than having to specify a
complete URL (e.g. to block any image called “advertisement.gif”). When enabled, your specified
keywords list is checked to see if any keywords are present in URLs accessed to determine if th e
connection attempt should be blocked. Note that the URL filter blocks web browser (HTTP)
connection attempts using port 80 only.
For example, the URL
http://www.abc.com/abcde.html would be dropped since the keyword
abcde” occurs in the URL.
