Downloading the URL Exempt List

You can back up the URL Exempt List by downloading it to a text file on the

management computer.

1 Go to Web Filter > URL Exempt.

2 Select Download URL Exempt List .

The FortiGate unit downloads the list to a text file on the management computer. You

can specify a location to which to download the text file as well as a name for the text

file.

Uploading a URL Exempt List

You can create a URL Exempt list in a text editor and then upload the text file to the

FortiGate unit. Add one URL or pattern to each line of the text file. The word or phrase

should be followed by a parameter specifying the status of the entry. If you do not add

this information to the text file, the FortiGate unit automatically enables all URLs and

patterns that are followed with a 1 or no number when you upload the text file.
