Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

    The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, ensure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

    Overview

    When you have finished configuring Umbrella, you can test your system by pointing your browser to one of Umbrella's test destinations.

    Note: OpenDNS was rebranded to Cisco Umbrella. However, you can still notice that some of the test pages display OpenDNS. You are still in the correct location. Umbrella is updating these pages to display the new Cisco Umbrella name and logo.

    These test pages apply to Umbrella DNS coverage and does not apply to users with active Secure Internet Gateway (SIG) coverage.
