Configure Google Chrome to Avoid Chrome Warning Pages Caused by Umbrella Redirection URL

Introduction

This document describes how to avoid a warning page caused by Umbrella redirection URL.

Background Information

A Google Chrome feature to protect users from typo-squatting domains and lookalike URLs to popular sites can trigger a warning page due to Umbrella redirection URLs.

Symptons

When the feature triggers, users see a warning page suggesting just the parent domain. The URL being requested in your browser can look similar to: www.google.com.x.12345fe0155a04000000051af7976e.98765.id.opendns.com:443 when it is attempting to redirect users to our servers.

Workaround

• Selecting ignore caches the response for that domain/URL in the future.
• Users can also disable this feature to prevent this from occurring again in the future by going to chrome://flags/#use-lookalikes-for-navigation-suggestions and selecting disabled.
