Web URL Filtering allows you to block HTTP access to malicious websites based on URL categories. You can allow or block an entire URL category to make configuration simpler. You can also specify the website exceptions against the URL category settings. For example, you can block the websites that Web URL Filtering usually allows, or allow the websites that Web URL Filtering usually blocks.
You can enable Web URL Filtering Alert to send email alerts to a specific email address when web URL categories have any changes. See Configuring Email Alert Settings, page 340.
Web URL Filtering only monitors and controls the website visits through the HTTP port specified on the Web URL Filtering > Advanced Settings page.
