• Pass Traffic (Unfiltered): This setting allows all Internet traffic to pass, as though all
categories are allowed access. Users will have full access to the web.
• Block Traffic: This setting blocks all Internet traffic that passes through the iPrism.
Depending on the nature of the failure, it might be impossible to connect to the iPrism
through the user interface. It is possible that a system reset will restore your iPrism to
operation.
Note: Regardless of the option you choose, the rest of your network will
continue to work normally if iPrism is not operating.
