Adding a Cerberian user to the FortiGate unit
The Cerberian web policies can only be applied to user groups. You can add users on

administration web site.
When the end user tries to access a URL, the FortiGate unit will check to see if the
user's IP address is in the IP address list on the FortiGate unit. If the user's IP address
is in the list, the request will be sent to the Cerberian server. Otherwise, an error
message will be sent to the user saying that the user doesn't have authorized access
to the Cerberian web filter.
