Network Id - EdgeWave iPrism Web Security Administration Manual

iPrism
Local Deny is designed for web pages that no one should see. It is automatically checked (both
blocked and monitored) in all new ACLs that are created, and should also be checked in all existing
profiles (except the default "PassAll" profile). iPrism uses this category as part of its Custom Filters
feature to let users instantly deny access to any URL.
Important: The Local Allow and Local Deny categories are, by default, used
internally by iPrism's Custom Filters and Override features. It is strongly
recommended that you keep Local Allow cleared (unchecked) and Local Deny
checked in all of your profiles. These settings will automatically default in all
new ACLs. If desired, you can change which categories iPrism uses to
allow/deny access from within Custom Filters.
The numbered local categories (local1, local2, etc.) can be used for any filtering purpose. For
example, if you want to block access to the websites of your competitors, you could do this:
Create a custom filter for each website to which you want to block access and assign all of them
1.
to the same local category (e.g., local5).
In Filtering > Profiles, edit the active profile so that the local category (e.g., local5) is blocked
2.
(and monitored, if desired).
Now, any website that belongs to the local5 rating will be blocked by this profile.

Note: When using local filters, it is up to you to keep track of which sites are
assigned to each category. To view local categories, from the iPrism home
page, select System Settings, then Local Categories.
