8.6 Chapter 8 Firewall Firewall Content Filter Screen The Content Filter screen allows users to restrict Web features, add keywords for blocking, and designate a trusted computer. A content filtering profile conveniently stores your custom settings for the following features. Restrict Web Features The FSG1100HN can disable Web proxies and block Web features such as ActiveX controls, Java applets, and cookies. Keyword Blocking URL Checking The FSG1100HN checks the URL's domain name (or IP address) and file path separately when performing keyword blocking. The URL's domain name or IP address is the characters that come before the first slash in the URL. For example, with the URL www.zyxel.com.tw/news/pressroom.php, the domain name is www.zyxel.com.tw. The file path is the characters that come after the first slash in the URL. For example, with the URL www.zyxel.com.tw/news/pressroom.php, the file path is news/pressroom.php. Since the FSG1100HN checks the URL's domain name (or IP address) and file path separately, it will not find items that go across the two. For example, with the URL www.zyxel.com.tw/news/pressroom.php, the FSG1100HN would find "tw" in the domain name (www.zyxel.com.tw). It would also find "news" in the file path (news/pressroom.php) but it would not find "tw/news". Click Firewall > Content Filter to open the Content Filter screen. Firewall > Content Filter The following table describes the content filter labels in this screen. Firewall > Content Filter LABEL DESCRIPTION Keyword Blocking Settings Enable URL Keyword Blocking The FSG1100HN can block Web sites with URLs that contain certain keywords in the domain name or IP address.

Firewall Content Filter Screen
The Content Filter screen allows users to restrict Web features, add keywords for
blocking, and designate a trusted computer. A content filtering profile conveniently
stores your custom settings for the following features.
Restrict Web Features
The FSG1100HN can disable Web proxies and block Web features such as ActiveX
controls, Java applets, and cookies.
Keyword Blocking URL Checking
The FSG1100HN checks the URL’s domain name (or IP address) and file path
separately when performing keyword blocking.
The URL’s domain name or IP address is the characters that come before the first
slash in the URL. For example, with the URL
www.zyxel.com.tw/news/pressroom.php
,
the domain name is
www.zyxel.com.tw
.
The file path is the characters that come after the first slash in the URL. For example,
with the URL
www.zyxel.com.tw/news/pressroom.php
, the file path
is
news/pressroom.php
.
Since the FSG1100HN checks the URL’s domain name (or IP address) and file path
separately, it will not find items that go across the two. For example, with the
URL
www.zyxel.com.tw/news/pressroom.php
, the FSG1100HN would find “tw” in the
domain name (
www.zyxel.com.tw
)
. It would also find “news” in the file path
(
news/pressroom.php
) but it would not find “tw/news”.
