You may specify one trusted user, which is a computer that will be exempt from blocking and logging. Since the trusted user will be identified by an IP address, you should configure that computer with a fixed IP address. Keyword Application Examples • If the keyword "XXX" is specified, the URL is blocked. • If the keyword ".com" is specified, only websites with other domain suffixes (such as .edu or .gov) can be viewed. • If you want to block all Internet browsing access during a scheduled period, enter the keyword "." and set the schedule in the Schedule page. Blocking Services (Port Filtering) You can block the use of certain Internet services by computers on your network. This is called services blocking or port filtering. Services are functions performed by server computers at the request of client computers. For example, Web servers serve Web pages, time servers serve time and date information, and game hosts serve data about other players' moves. When a computer on your network sends a request for service to a server computer on the Internet, the requested service is identified by a service or port number. This number appears as the destination port number in the transmitted IP packets. For example, a packet that is sent with destination port number 80 is an HTTP (Web server) request. 3-2 Content Filtering v1.0, May 2007
