5Enter the full access password.

The full access password gives selected users a password that bypasses otherwise blocked sites.

6Enter the password expiration duration in minutes.

Setting the full access password expiration at, for example, 15 minutes, ensures that unattended Web browsers will be disconnected after sitting idle for 15 minutes. This ensures that only the individuals chosen to use the full access password will be able to browse otherwise blocked sites.

Enable the checkboxes for the categories to which you want to deny access.

8Click the Submit button to register your changes.

Submitting the page alters your configuration file to turn on WebBlocker and block users from accessing Web sites that match the categories you checked in Step 7.

WebBlocker categories

WebBlocker relies on a URL database built and maintained by SurfControl. The Firebox automatically and regularly downloads a current version of the WebBlocker database from the WatchGuard Web site to your log host. The Firebox then copies the new version into memory. This process ensures the most up-to-date Web filtering and blocking capabilities.

SurfControl constantly searches the Internet to update the list of blocked sites. The WebBlocker database contains the following 14 categories.
