Content Filtering Reports

This chapter describes how to view content filtering reports after you have activated the category-based content filtering subscription service.

See Chapter 4 on page 100 on how to create a myZyXEL.com account, register your device and activate the subscription services using the REGISTRATION screens.

17.1 Checking Content Filtering Activation

After you activate content filtering, you need to wait up to five minutes for content filtering to be turned on.

Since there will be no content filtering activation notice, you can do the following to see if content filtering is active.

1Go to your device’s web configurator’s CONTENT FILTER Categories screen.

2Select at least one category and click Apply.

3Enter a valid URL or IP address of a web site in the Test if Web site is blocked field and click the Test Against Internet Server button.

When content filtering is active, you should see an access blocked or access forwarded message. An error message displays if content filtering is not active.

17.2Viewing Content Filtering Reports

Content filtering reports are generated statistics and charts of access attempts to web sites belonging to the categories you selected in your device content filter screen.

You need to register your iCard before you can view content filtering reports.

Alternatively, you can also view content filtering reports during the free trial (up to 30 days).

1Go to http://www.myZyXEL.com.

2Fill in your myZyXEL.com account information and click Submit.
