Web filtering

When you enable Anti-Virus & Web filter in a firewall policy, you select a content

profile that controls how web filtering behaves for HTTP traffic. Content profiles control

the following types of content filtering:

• blocking unwanted URLs,

• blocking unwanted content,

• removing scripts from web pages,

• exempting URLs from blocking.

You can also use the Cerberian URL filtering to block unwanted URLs. For more

information, see “Configuring Cerberian URL filtering” on page 296.

This chapter describes:

• General configuration steps

• Content blocking

• URL blocking

• Configuring Cerberian URL filtering

• Script filtering

Configuring web filtering involves the following general steps:

1 Select web filtering options in a new or existing content profile. See “Adding content

profiles” on page 219.

connections through the FortiGate unit.
