Additional Content Filters The Firewall can also filter Java Applets, Java/VB Script, ActiveX objects, and/or cookies from reaching the PCs behind the NetDefend Firewall. These content categories do not require configuration other than enable or disable. Navigate to the Firewall tab, Content Filtering section of the web-administration. Click the check box next to each filter you would like to enable. Once finished selecting additional filters, click Apply to save changes or Cancel to clear. HTTP Rule using the HTTP ALG Now that the content to be filtered has been decided on, a rule needs to be configured for each interface that this filtering should be applied to utilizing the HTTP ALG. This will require a rework of the default outbound policy to eliminate the chance of unfiltered HTTP traffic passing through the Firewall. The idea is to remove the most general allow rule and configure rules to allow essential services such as DNS as well as HTTP to pass the Firewall. 132

Additional Content Filters
The Firewall can also filter Java Applets, Java/VB Script, ActiveX objects, and/or cookies
from reaching the PCs behind the NetDefend Firewall.
These content categories do not
require configuration other than enable or disable.
Navigate to the
Firewall
tab,
Content Filtering
section of the web-administration.
Click the check box next to each filter you would like to enable.
Once finished selecting additional filters, click

HTTP Rule using the HTTP ALG
Now that the content to be filtered has been decided on, a rule needs to be configured for
each interface that this filtering should be applied to utilizing the HTTP ALG.
This will require a
rework of the default outbound policy to eliminate the chance of unfiltered HTTP traffic passing
through the Firewall.
The idea is to remove the most general allow rule and configure rules to
allow essential services such as DNS as well as HTTP to pass the Firewall.
