the time period specified in the Content Filter Server Unavailable
Timeout field.

from the external content filtering server. If there is still no response by the
time this period expires, the ZyWALL blocks or allows access to the
requested web page based on the setting in the Block When Content Filter
Server Is Unavailable field.
