Content Filtering
Dell Instant uses OpenDNS to implement the Content Filtering feature. OpenDNS is a Domain Name System
(DNS) resolution service provider. It offers features such as misspelling correction, phishing protection, and
integrated web content filtering. For more information on OpenDNS, refer to
opendns.com/.
The Content Filtering feature allows you to create internet access policies that allow or deny user access to
websites based on the website categories and security ratings. This feature is useful to:
Prevent known malware hosts from accessing your wireless network.
Improve employee productivity by limiting access to certain websites.
Reduce bandwidth consumption significantly.
Content Filtering is based on per SSID, and up to four domain names can be configured manually. When
enabled, all DNS requests to non-corporate domains on this wireless network are sent to OpenDNS.
Enabling Content Filtering
To enable content filtering per SSID, perform the following steps:
1. Click
New
in the Networks tab and then click
More
to view the options
2. In the
Other Options
field, select
Enabled
from the
Content Filtering
drop-down list and click
Next
to
continue
.
NOTE: Regardless of whether content filtering is disabled or enabled,
instant.dell-pcw.com
is always resolved internally on
Instant.
NOTE: On startup, the IAP learns the default domain name via DHCP. This domain name also applies for Content Filtering.
Go to Settings > Basic > Domain name to configure a domain name for a virtual controller assigned network. This domain name
applies for Content Filtering. When you select Virtual Controller assigned option, the client gets the IP address from the Virtual
Controller. The Virtual Controller creates a private subnet and VLAN on the IAPs for the wireless clients, this VLAN is called “virtual
controller assigned networks”. The Virtual Controller NATs all traffic that passes out of this interface. See
“Employee Network” on
page
39
to select Virtual Controller assigned option and
Chapter 7, “Virtual Controller” on page
75
for DHCP server configuration.
