Using Parental Control - Belkin F6D3230-4 Software Setup Manual

Using Parental Control

Now that Parental Control is activated, objectionable websites will
now be blocked by the Parental Control feature. If a computer
on the network attempts to access a blocked website, a screen will
appear in the web browser stating that that page has been "Blocked
by Parental Control". Also, the reason for the block will be
stated—for example, "This site was blocked because it is categorized
as pornography."
There are options on the page that will allow you to do one of
the following:
Disagree: If you believe that the site has been incorrectly rated,
•
you can click the "Disagree" button. This will cause the site to be
re-evaluated within 48 hours.
Note: If a particular site continues to be blocked and you do
not agree or want it blocked, you can add the site to a list of
"Overrides" which will permit access to the site regardless of the
rating. See "Change".
Change: By clicking the "Change" button, you can modify your
•
policy to allow the category or to create an override for the
particular site that is blocked. For example, you may decide
to allow a particular category of websites that was previously
blocked. The Parental Control password is required to make
any changes to the policies. For more information on this, see
"Modifying your Parental Control Policies" on page 9 in this
guide.
Override: You can click the "Override" button and enter the
•
Parental Control password to override the Parental Control
feature for a period of one hour. This bypasses all Parental
Control features on the computer you are working on, allowing
free surfing to any site on the Internet. Parental Control settings
will remain in effect on all other computers on your network.
CAUTION: The computer on which you entered the override
is now NOT managed by the Parental Control, and will not be
restricted for a period of one hour. That means that anyone who
uses the Internet from this computer will not be protected by
Parental Control until the one-hour period has expired. However,
all other PCs will still be filtered.
