Filtering Scenarios
This collection of ltering scenarios is designed to help you get started ltering the net-
work. Each scenario is followed by R3000 setup information. Please consult the “How to”
section in the index of the R3000 User Guide for pages containing detailed, step-by-step
instructions on conguring and/or using the tools and features in that scenario.

I. Threats/Liabilities

1. Category block

Block categories that threaten your network/organization. In pertinent proles,
block access to the Security category group and other categories containing content
that threaten your organization.
To block categories in a prole, go to:
GROUP: Group > IP > member > member prole > Category tab
or GROUP: Group > Global Group > Global Group Prole > Category tab
In the R3000 User Guide index, see:
• How to: use library categories in a prole

2. Rule block

Use a rule to block categories that threaten your network/organization. Create
a rule that blocks access to the Security category group and other categories con-
taining content that threaten your organization, and then apply this rule to pertinent
proles. Or use a dened rule—such as the 8e6 CIPA Compliance rule, if in the edu-
cational sector—to block related categories.
To create a rule and block categories in a prole, go to:
GROUP: Group > Global Group > Rules
Group > IP > member > member prole > Category tab
or Group > Global Group > Global Group Prole > Category tab

3. X-Strike on blocked categories

Lock out users from workstations after “X” number of attempts are made to
access content that could endanger your network/organization. Enable and
congure the X Strikes Blocking feature, specifying categories that threaten your or-
ganization. Enable the X Strikes Blocking lter option in applicable proles. The user
receives a block page and is locked out of Internet/Intranet access after the specied
number of “strikes” are made to any of these categories.
