Creating Webblocker Profiles - Watchguard Firebox X20E User Manual

WebBlocker shows the HTTP proxy deny message in the user browser when it blocks a site. You can
customize this message when you configure the HTTP proxy policy. For more information, see "Configuring
the HTTP Proxy" on page 105.

Creating WebBlocker Profiles

A WebBlocker profile is a set of restrictions you apply to users or groups of users on your network. You
can create different profiles, with different groups of restrictions. For example, you can create a profile
for new employees with more restrictions than for other employees. It is not necessary to create Web-
Blocker profiles if you use one set of WebBlocker rules for all of your users.
After you create profiles, you must apply them when you set up Firebox® X Edge user accounts. Even if
you have only one set of WebBlocker rules, you must choose to apply the WebBlocker rules to each
new user or group you create as described in "Setting a WebBlocker profile for a user" on page 161
