5.4.3 URL Blocking

URL Blocking will block the local computers from accessing pre-defined web sites. The main difference between Domain filter and URL Blocking is that Domain filter requires you to input a suffix like .com or .org, etc., while URL Blocking only requires you to input a keyword. In other words, Domain filter can block a specific web site, while URL Blocking can block hundreds of web sites that contain the specified keyword.

URL Blocking: Check the Enable box to activate the URL Blocking function.

URL: Enter a keyword in this field. If any part of the web site's URL matches the keyword, the connection will be blocked. For example, you can specify the keyword "something" to block access to all the web sites that have the word “something” in their URLs.

Enable (check box): Check the box to enable each filter.
