2. If not, the router checks if the domain is listed in the forbidden list. If it is, then the connection attempt

will be dropped.

3. If the packet does not match either of the above two items, it is sent to the remote web server.

4. Please be note that the completed URL, “www” + domain name shall be specified. For example to block

traffic to

www.google.com.au

, enter “

www.google

” or “

www.google.com

In the example below, the URL request for

www.abc.com

will be sent to the remote web server because it is listed in

the trusted list, whilst the URL request for

www.google

or

www.google.com

will be dropped, because

www.google

is

in the forbidden list.

Example:

Andy wishes to disable all WEB traffic except for ones listed in the trusted domain, which would

prevent Bobby from accessing other web sites. Andy selects both check boxes in Domain Filtering and thinks
that this will stop Bobby. But Bobby knows this function, Domain Filtering, ONLY disables all WEB traffic
except for Trusted Domain, BUT not connections using IP addresses. In this situation, the Block surfing by IP
address
function can be handy and helpful to Andy. Now, Andy can prevent Bobby from accessing sites, both
by IP and by domain name.

Restrict URL Features: This function enhances the restriction to your URL rules.

Block Java Applet: This function can block Web content that includes a Java Applet. This is to prevent

someone who wants to damage your system via standard HTTP protocol.

Block surfing by IP address: This prevents someone who uses the IP address as URL from skipping

the Domains Filtering function. This is only Activate if Domain Filtering is enabled.
