Chapter 5 - Url Categorization; Important Settings; Setting Up Http Proxy And Url Filtering - Multitech RouteFinder RF850 User Manual

Chapter 5 – URL Categorization
The Universal Resource Locator (URL) Categorization License Key allows you to set up a URL database that
limits clients' access to places on the Internet by blocking sites you do not want accessed. In other words, you
can deny users access to various categories of Web sites you select.

Important Settings

•
The RouteFinder must be connected to the Internet for the URL License to be activated.
•
With the HTTP proxy functioning in transparent mode, clients are unaware that their Internet requests
are being transferred through an HTTP proxy.

Setting Up HTTP Proxy and URL Filtering

1. Click Proxy from the Menu bar. The HTTP Proxy screen displays.
Notes About the HTTP Proxy Screen:
•
When this screen initially displays, only the HTTP Proxy Status field, its checkbox and Save
button can be seen.
•
More parts of the HTTP Proxy screen display after clicking Status and Save. Also, the URL
Categorization section and the Authentication section display.
•
After clicking and saving URL Filter and User Authentication, more parts to these screen
display as shown below.
•
If you check and Save Transparency, User Authentication is not available. The Transparency
option is not shown on this screen since it was not checked and User Authentication was
selected.
