The first section, the URL exempt and block filters, will allow you to decide what action to
take for specific addresses. For example, if you want to exempt www.google.com from
being scanned, you can add it to the URL exempt list. Then no web filtering or virus
scanning will be taken to this web site.
If you have blocked a pattern but want certain users to have access to URLs within that
pattern, you can use the Override within the FortiGuard Web Filter. This will allow you to
specify which users have access to which blocked URLs and how long they have that
access. For example, you want user1 to be able to access www.example.com for 1 hour.
You can use this section to set up the exemption. Any user listed in an override must fill
out an online authentication form before the FortiGate unit will grant access to the blocked
URL.
FortiGuard Web Filter also lets you create local categories to block groups of URLs. Once
you have created the category, you can use the local rating to add specific sites to the
local category you have created. You then use the
Firewall > Protection Profile
to tell the
FortiGuard Unit what action to take with the Local category. The local ratings overwrite the
FortiGuard ratings.
Finally the FortiGuard unit applies script filtering for ActiveX, Cookie, and Java applet,
which can be configured in
Firewall > Protection Profile > Web Filtering
.
Once you have finished configuring all of these settings, you still have to turn them all on
in the
Firewall > Protection Profile > Web filtering
and
Firewall > Protection Profile >
FortiGuard Web Filtering.
By enabling them here, you are telling the FortiGate unit to start
using the filters as you have configured them.
This section describes how to configure web filtering options. Web filtering functions must
be enabled in the active protection profile for the corresponding settings in this section to
have any effect.
