Adding a URL to Block

Add URL

To block a site

  1. Enter the IP/Range/CIDR to block.

  2. Choose the category from the drop-down menu. This will dictate which profile or profiles it is applied to. You can see which lists are applied in each profile [here][].

  3. Enter a comment - this is logged centrally and in the local [changes log][] so should give some indication of the reason the site was blocked.

  4. Click Submit to add the URL to the selected list. You may then continue adding URLs. Once you have finished adding IPs select Apply Changes from the Action Changes menu to make the changes live.

NOTE 1: some categories are deemed 'emergency' and will cause the change to be made regionally within 30 minutes without any intervention. These are pornography, proxy, illegal drugs, illegal hacking, and intolerance. Please use these categories with care!
