Pop-up windows
Automatic opening of new browser windows — usually pop-up windows with advertise-
ments.
This option will allow / block the window.open() method in JavaScript.
<Applet> HTML tags
Applets in Java.
Cross-domain referers
This option allows / blocks the Referer item included in an HTTP header.
The Referer item includes pages that have been viewed prior to the current page. This
option allows to block Referer in case that it includes a server name different from the
one defined in the particular HTTP request.
The Cross-domain referer function protects users’ privacy (the Referer item can be mon-
itored to see which pages are opened by each user).
The Language options section allows setting of preferred language of the WinRoute’s web inter-
face (including the Kerio StaR interface). The browser detected option sets preferred language
in accordance with settings in user’s web browser and uses the language with the highest pref-
erence rate available. English will be used if none of other preferred languages is available.
Preferred language also applies to email alerts sent by the firewall (notices of reaching of data
transfer quota, detected viruses, detected P2P networks, etc.). If language is detected and
set by using user’s web browser preferences, language set as preferred for the previous user’s
login to the web interface will be used. If the user has not logged into the web interface before,
alerts will be in English.
Note: These settings can be customized at a corresponding page of the WinRoute’s Web in-
terface (see Kerio WinRoute Firewall — User’s Guide). If the user can override content rules,
any changes can be made. Users who are not allowed to override rules can enable or/and dis-
able only features which are available for them (set in their personal configuration). Language
preferences can always be changed.
Hint
Content rules can also be defined by a user account template.
Step 6 — user’s IP addresses
If a user works at a reserved workstation (i.e. this computer is not by any other user) with
a fixed IP address (static or reserved at the DHCP server), the user can use automatic login
from the particular IP address. This implies that whenever a connection attempt from this IP
address is detected, WinRoute assumes that the connection is performed by the particular user
and it does not require authentication. The user is logged-in automatically and all functions
are available as if connected against the username and password.
This implies that only one user can be automatically authenticated from a particular IP ad-
dress. When a user account is being created, WinRoute automatically detects whether the
specified IP address is used for automatic login or not.
