website by including the full path and filename of the web page to block.

Adding URLs to the Web URL block list

1 Go to Web Filter > Web URL Block.

2 Select New to add a URL to the Web URL block list.

3 Type the URL the you want to block.

Type a top-level URL or IP address to block access to all pages on a website. For

example, www.badsite.com or 122.133.144.155 blocks access to all pages at

this website.

Type a top-level URL followed by the path and filename to block access to a single

page on a website. For example, www.badsite.com/news.html or

122.133.144.155/news.html blocks the news page on this website.

To block all pages with a URL that ends with badsite.com, add badsite.com to

the block list. For example, adding badsite.com blocks access to

www.badsite.com, mail.badsite.com, www.finance.badsite.com, and so

on.

Note: Banned Word must be selected in the content profile for web pages containing banned

words to be blocked.

Note: Do not include http:// in the URL that you want to block.
