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 the ones listed in the trusted
domain list, which would prevent Bobby from accessing other web sites. Andy selects both
functions in the Domain Filtering and thinks that it will stop Bobby. Nevertheless, Bobby knows
that Domain Filtering will ONLY disable all WEB traffic except for the one in the Trusted
Domain, BUT not its IP address. If this is the situation, Block surfing by IP address function
can be handy and helpful to Andy. With this feature, Andy can prevent Bobby from accessing
unwanted websites.
