Blocking Keywords, Sites and Services

The gateway provides a variety of options for blocking Internet content and communications to the gateway. You can control access to Internet content by screening for keywords within Web addresses; you also can block access to all sites except those that are explicitly allowed. Blocking options include:

•Blocking access from your LAN to Internet locations that contain keywords that your specify.

•Blocking access to Web sites (domains) that you specify as off-limits.

•Allowing access to only Web sites (domains) that you specify as allowed.

You can also block access to the Internet by a specific computer based on the hardware MAC address of that computer. Blocking access to the Internet based on the hardware MAC address of the computer or wireless adapter is described in “Using MAC Filtering to Block Access” on page 3-4.

To configure any of the parental controls, you must be logged in as a parent.
