11.4-A
Domains
Custom domain list (incl. subdomains)
Compile your own list of domains or IP addresses here. In the web proxy configuration
you can then grant or deny access to this URL filter list and so to the listed domains. For
domain names, this includes all subdomains. For instance if you enter "example.com",
access to e.g. "www.example.com" or "ftp.example.com" is affected as well. The
comparison is case-insensitive.
The entries listed here will be compared with the destination
of a request without performing any DNS lookups. Therefore
a blocked domain might still be accessible when using the
corresponding IP address and vice versa.
11.4-B
Files
Blocked file extensions
The URL filter can grant or deny access to certain types of files based on the filename
extension. Simply add the requested extensions to the list. It makes no difference, if
you specify an extension as e.g. "mp3", ".mp3" or "*.mp3". All three formats refer to the
extension "mp3". SX-GATE tests each request, if the filename ends with a dot, followed
by one of the listed extensions. The comparison is case insensitive.
SX-GATE will compare the filename from the requested URL
with the extensions from the list. There won't be any analysis of
contents received from the Internet.
