Adding URLs to the Exempt URL List

•Go to Web Filter > Exempt URL .

•Select New to add an entry to the Exempt URL list.

•Type the URL to exempt.

Enter a complete URL, including path and filename, to exempt access to a page on a website. For example, www.goodsite.com/index.html exempts access to the main page of this example website. You can also add IP addresses; for example, 122.63.44.67/index.html exempts access to the main web page at this address. Do not include http:// in the URL to exempt.

Exempting a top level URL, such as www.goodsite.com, exempts all requested subpages (for example, www.goodsite.com / badpage ) from all content and URL filtering rules.

Exempting a top-level URL does not exempt pages such as mail.goodsite.com from all content and URL filtering rules unless goodsite.com (without the www ) is added to the Exempt URL list.

You can enter multiple URLs and then select Check All to activate all entries in the Exempt URL list.
