clients such as Google Web Accelerator and proxy patterns
that bypass filtering (see
http://www.m86security.com/
software/8e6/hlp/ifr/files/1system_proxy_block .html for
a list of proxy pattern types set up to be blocked. When
using this feature, the Pattern Detection Whitelist window
can be used for setting up IP addresses to bypass pattern
filtering (see Pattern Detection Whitelist window in Chapter
3: Library screen). Target(s) Filtering will only display if this
server being configured is set up for synchronization in the
Source mode. This frame is used for specifying whether
filtering will take place on all Web Filters on the network set
up in the Target mode.
NOTE : This window displays greyed-out if the synchronization
feature is used, and this server being configured is set up in the
Target mode to synchronize both profile and library setting
changes.
TIP : See the Web Filter Introductory Section for overviews on the
following topics:
• IM and P2P (Chapter 2: Logging and Blocking)
• Synchronization (Chapter 3: Synchronizing Multiple Units)
Local Filtering
In the Local Filtering frame, indicate the function of this
server being configured, in regards to filtering the network.
The default setting has
Local Filtering “On” and VLAN
Detection “Off”.
Disable Local Filtering Options
If you have multiple Web Filters on the network, you may
wish to disable local filtering on the source server and use
the server primarily for authenticating users who log on the
network. This frees up resources on the server.
To disable Local Filtering and/or VLAN Detection , click
the “Off” radio button(s).
