To enable keyword blocking, select either “Per Schedule” or “Always”, then click Apply. If you want to block by schedule, be sure that a time period is specified in the Schedule menu.

To add a keyword or domain, type it in the Keyword box, click Add Keyword, then click Apply.

To delete a keyword or domain, select it from the list, click Delete Keyword, then click Apply.

Keyword application examples:

If the keyword "XXX" is specified, the URL <http://www.badstuff.com/xxx.html> is blocked.

If the keyword “.com” is specified, only websites with other domain suffixes (such as .edu or

.gov) can be viewed.

If you wish to block all Internet browsing access during a scheduled period, enter the keyword “.” and set the schedule in the Schedule menu.

To specify a Trusted User, enter that computer’s IP address in the Trusted User box and click Apply. You may specify one Trusted User, which is a computer that will be exempt from blocking and logging. Since the Trusted User will be identified by an IP address, you should configure that computer with a fixed IP address.

The TA612V adapter allows you to block the use of certain Internet services by computers on your network. This is called services blocking or port filtering. The Block Services menu is shown below:
