Enabling Cerberian URL filtering

Installing a Cerberian license key

Before you can use the Cerberian web filter, you must install a license key. The license key determines the number of end users allowed to use Cerberian web filtering through the FortiGate unit.

To install a Cerberian licence key

1Go to Web Filter > URL Block.

2Select Cerberian URL Filtering.

3Enter the license number.

4Select Apply.

Adding a Cerberian user

The Cerberian web policies can be applied only to user groups. You can add users on the FortiGate unit and then add the users to user groups on the Cerberian administration web site.

When the end user tries to access a URL, the FortiGate unit checks whether the user’s IP address is in the IP address list on the FortiGate unit. If the user’s IP address is in the list, the request is sent to the Cerberian server. Otherwise, an error message is sent to the user saying that the user does not have authorized access to the Cerberian web filter.

To add a Cerberian user

1Go to Web Filter > URL Block.

2Select Cerberian URL Filtering.

3Select New.
