Url Blocking - TRENDnet TDM-C500 User Manual

A URL is a web address that is normally typed into a web browser. For instance www.yahoo.com,
www.msn.com are all URLs. URL Blocking allows you to block URLs based upon keywords that you enter
into a box. Blocking URLs prevents people on your network from accessing these websites. These keywords
may be full URL's or they may just be words.
FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) means the complete domain name for a specific computer (host) on
the Internet. It provides enough information so that it can be converted into a physical IP address. The FQDN
consists of host name and domain name. For example, www.google.com is the FQDN on the Web for the
publisher of this database. The WWW is the host. On the Web, there are millions of hosts named WWW in
order to maintain uniformity. GOOGLE.COM is the domain name, with .COM being the top level domain (TLD)
name.
