Users and groups
Select users and/or user groups which will be excluded from the statistics and no quota
will be applied to them. This setting has the highest priority and overrules any other
quota settings in user or group preferences.
For details on users and groups, see chapter
Web Pages
Define a URL group. Connections to web sites with these URLs will not be accounted. Such
exception can be used for example to exclude the own corporate web servers from the
statistics (connection to corporate websites is usually considered a work-related activity)
or to exclude ads connection to certain pages may download advertisements automati-
cally, it is not the user’s request. For this purpose, you can use the predefined URL group
Ads/banners
(see chapter
).
Wildmarks can be used in URL groups items. This implies that it is possible to define
exceptions for particular pages or for all pages on a particular server, all web servers in
a domain, etc. For details on URL groups, refer to chapter
.
URL exceptions can be applied only to unsecured web pages (the
HTTP
protocol). Connec-
tions to secured pages (the
HTTPS
protocol) are encrypted and URL of such pages cannot
be detected.
Note:
Unlike in case of exceptions described above, data transferred within connections
to such web pages will be included in the quota.

WinRoute’s
