Chapter 9: SOHO 6 WebBlocker

WatchGuard Firebox SOHO 6.1

SOHO 6 queries the WatchGuard database and determines
whether or not to block the site. The SOHO 6 considers the
following conditions in determining whether or not to block the
site:

Web site not in the WebBlocker database

If the site is not in the WatchGuard WebBlocker database, the Web
browser opens the page for viewing.

Web site in the WebBlocker database

If the site is in the WatchGuard WebBlocker database, the SOHO 6
checks whether or not to block that type (or category) of site. When
the category is blocked, the browser displays a page informing the
user that the site is unavailable for viewing. If the category is not
blocked, the Web browser opens the page for viewing.

WatchGuard WebBlocker database unavailable

If for any reason the WatchGuard WebBlocker database is
unavailable (for example, if there is briefly a problem between
your ISP and the nearest WatchGuard server), the browser
displays a page informing the user that the site is unavailable for
viewing.
