The Preferences tab allows setting of custom web content filtering and preferred language for
the web interface. If user account is created in the WinRoute’s internal database (see chap-

The upper section of the page enables to permit or deny particular items of web pages.
Content filter options
If the checkbox under a filter is enabled, this feature will be available (it will not be
blocked by the firewall).
If a certain feature is disabled in the parameters of a user account (see chapter 15.1 ),
a corresponding item within this page is inactive (user cannot change settings of the
item). Users are only allowed to make the settings more restrictive. In other words, users
cannot enable an HTML item denied by the administrators for themselves.
