NOTE: If the minimum filtering level is not set up, global (default)
filtering settings will apply instead.

Filter Settings

Categories and service ports use the following settings to
specify how filtering will be executed:

block - if a category or a service port is given a block

setting, users will be denied access to the item set up as
“blocked”

open - if a category or the filter segment detected on the

network is given an open (pass) setting, users will be
allowed access to the item set up as “opened”

NOTE: Using the quota feature, access to an open category can
be restricted to a defined number of minutes.

always allowed - if a category is given an always

allowed setting, the category is included in the user’s
white list and takes precedence over blocked categories

warn - If a category is given a warn setting, a warning

page displays for the end user to warn him/her that
accessing the intended URL may be against established
policies and to proceed at his/her own risk

filter - if a service port is given a filter setting, that port will

use filter settings created for library categories (block or
open settings) to determine whether users should be
denied or allowed access to that port

ignore - if the filter segment detected on the network has

a service port set up to be ignored, that service port will
be bypassed
