To help you become familiar with the R3000 and how it func- tions on the network, Chapter 1 of this section of the User Guide provides an overview on filtering. Chapter 2 gives insight into Web site access logging, and instant messaging and peer-to-peer setup procedures.
• Macintosh OS X Version 10.5 running Safari 2.0, Firefox • JavaScript enabled • Java Virtual Machine • Java Plug-in (use the version specified for the R3000 software version) NOTE: R3000 administrators must be set up with software instal- lation privileges in order to install Java used for accessing the interface.
HAPTER ILTERING PERATIONS Chapter 1: Filtering Operations Operational Modes Based on the setup of your network, the R3000 can be configured to use one of these operational modes for filtering the network: • invisible mode • router mode • firewall mode...
ILTERING PERATIONS Invisible Mode If the R3000 is set up in the invisible mode, the unit will filter all connections on the Ethernet between client PCs and the Internet, without stopping each IP packet on the same Ethernet segment. The unit will only intercept a session if an inappropriate request was submitted by a client.
Page 37
(4) is sent to the Internet server. An R3000 set up in the invisible mode can also work in the router mode. Figure 1:1-2 illustrates an example of a monitor mode setup, with the R3000 connected to the managed switching hub.
ILTERING PERATIONS Router Mode If the R3000 is set up in the router mode, the unit will act as an Ethernet router, filtering IP packets as they pass from one card to another. While all original packets from client PCs are allowed to pass, if the R3000 determines that a request is inappropriate, a block page is returned to the client to replace the actual requested Web page or service.
Firewall Mode The firewall mode is a modification of the router mode. With the R3000 set up in this mode, the unit will filter all requests. If the request is appropriate, the original packet will pass unchanged. If the request is inappropriate, the original packet will be blocked from being routed through.
Page 40
Figure 1:1-5 illustrates an example of a firewall mode setup in which requests are always sent to the caching server. In this scenario the R3000 will be affected if the caching proxy server contains unfiltered, “bad” cached pages. 8e6 recom- mends that cached content is cleared or expired after installing the R3000.
NOTES: If authentication is enabled, the global administrator can also access the NT and LDAP branches of the tree. If multiple R3000 units are set up on the network and the synchro- nization feature is used, an R3000 that is set up to receive profile changes will only display the Global Group type in the tree list.

Service ports are used when setting up filter segments on the network (the range of IP addresses/netmasks to be detected by the R3000), the global (default) filtering profile, and the minimum filtering level. When setting up the range of IP addresses/netmasks to be detected, service ports can be set up to be open (ignored).
• ignore - if the filter segment detected on the network has a service port set up to be ignored, that service port will be bypassed , R3000 E ECHNOLOGIES NTERPRISE ILTER UIDE...

Chapter 2: Logging and Blocking Web Access Logging One of the primary functions of the R3000 is to log the activity of users on the Internet. Information captured in the log can be transferred to a reporting appliance, to be viewed on a PC monitor or output to a printer.
When the IM module is loaded on the server, the R3000 compares packets on the network with IM libraries stored on the R3000 server. If a match is found, the R3000 checks the user’s profile to see whether the user’s connection to the IM service should be blocked, and then performs the appro- priate action.
When the P2P module is loaded on the server, the R3000 compares packets on the network with the P2P library stored on the R3000 server. If a match is found, the R3000 checks the user’s profile to see whether the user’s connec- tion to the P2P service should be blocked, and then performs the appropriate action.
(such as IMGEN, IMGCHAT, IMGTALK, ICQAIM, IMMSN, IMMYSP, and/or IMYAHOO) set up to be blocked • the minimum filtering level profile must have both CHAT and specified individual Instant Messaging library cate- gories set up to be blocked. , R3000 E ECHNOLOGIES NTERPRISE ILTER UIDE...
IM traffic with the Range to Detect feature is desired • the minimum filtering level profile should not have IM blocked, unless blocking all IM traffic with the Range to Detect feature is desired. , R3000 E ECHNOLOGIES NTERPRISE ILTER UIDE...

Alone” mode, “Source” mode, or “Target” mode—based on the setup within your organization. In a multi-R3000 server environment, all R3000 units should be set up with the same user profile data, so that no matter which R3000 server a user’s PC accesses on the network, that user’s Internet usage is appropriately filtered and blocked.

R3000 appliances on the network. Whenever a filtering configuration change is made on the source R3000 unit, that change is sent to all target R3000 units that have been identified by the source unit via the Synchronization Setup window of the R3000 console. This means that all filtering configuration should be made on the source R3000 unit.
This entry identifies the location of each target unit on the network. WARNING: If an R3000 server is set up in the Source mode with a Network Address Translation (NAT) device between the source and target server(s), be sure that ports 26262, 26268, and 88 are open on the source server.
YNCHRONIZING ULTIPLE NITS WARNING: If an R3000 server is set up in the Target mode with a NAT device between the target and source server, be sure that ports 26262 and 26268 are open on the target server. This setup is required so that the target server can communicate with the source server.
Once locally applied on the source server, this update will be placed in a queue for submission to target R3000 servers. The source server will then send the information in the queue to all target servers.
The delay in activating a library change can take a little longer than in activating a filtering profile change. This is due to the fact that the library on the R3000 is loaded into the physical memory. When a change is made to the library, a new library must be loaded into memory with the changes.
R3000s will read from the source R3000 upon load. These items will then be updated on an as needed basis from the source R3000. For purpose of differentiation, these items will be referred to as functionally synchronized for purposes of this user guide.
NITS Server Maintenance Procedures Source Server Failure Scenarios In the event that the source R3000 unit should fail, the target servers will continue to run using the last known configura- tion loaded from the source server. However, all dynamic authentication-based profiles will eventually time-out, since the source R3000 server can no longer verify user creden- tials.
5. Go to the Reboot window (accessible via System > Control) and reboot the server. 6. Once the R3000 is rebooted, reconnect to the console and access the Backup/Restore window. 7. Upload the last good configuration from the failed source server to the new source server.
