Web URL block list

You can add your own specific URLs to block or you can obtain one of several publicly
available lists of objectionable URLs. You can add the following items to the URL
block list:

• complete URLs
• IP addresses
• partial URLs to block all sub-domains

If you want to use more than one URL block list, simply combine the lists in a text file
and upload them to the FortiGate unit by selecting the Upload URL block list icon.
URLs in a text file must be separated by hard returns to upload correctly.
