URL Filter
URL (Uniform Resource Locator) (e.g. an address in the form of http://www.abcde.com or http:// www.example.com)
filter rule allows you to prevent users on your network from accessing specific websites defined by their URL. There are
no predefined URL filter rules, therefore you can add filter rules to meet your requirements.
Enable/Disable: Select to enable or disable URL Filter feature.
Block Mode: A list of the modes that you can choose from to check the URL filter rules. The default is set to Always On.
Disabled: No action will be performed by the Block Mode.
Always On: Action is enabled. URL filter rules will be monitoring and checking at all hours of the day.
TimeSlot1 ~ TimeSlot16: It is a self defined time period. You may specify the time period to check the URL
filter rules, i.e. during working hours. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule section.
Keywords Filtering: Allow blocking against 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 will be
checked to see if any keywords are present in URLs accessed to determine if the connection attempt should be blocked.
Please note that the URL filter blocks web browser (HTTP) connection attempts using port 80 only.
For example, if the URL is
http://www.abc.com/abcde.html
, the connection will be dropped if the keyword
“abcde” occurs in the URL.
