Content Access Control

This chapter gives some background information on Content Access Control and explains how to get started with the ZyXEL Device Content Access Control.

14.1 Content Access Control Overview

Content Access Control (CAC) lets a LAN administrator control a LAN user’s Internet access privileges by blocking services that you specify. The administrator can create user groups with access restrictions and set up user accounts (with a login name and password) for each person (user) on the network. The user accounts are associated to a user group. Each person must log into the system before they can gain access to the Internet.

14.1.1 Content Access Control WLAN Application

You can control LAN user Internet access by having an administrator configure Content Access Control on the ZyXEL Device.

The administrator must create user groups and accounts (each person (user) on the network). Each person must log into the system before they can gain access to the Internet. Each user group will hold the details (access rights and privileges and time schedule) for the associated user accounts. The ZyXEL Device enforces these access restrictions.
