URL Filtering List

On NetScreen devices that support virtual systems, you can view a table of how URL filtering is set for the root system and each virtual system (vsys). The table contains the following information:

System: Root system or the name of a virtual system.

Note: An asterisk indicates that a vsys shares the URL filtering configuration with the root system.

State: Whether URL filtering is enabled or disabled.

Source Interface: The source interface is the point of origin for URL filtering requests from the NetScreen device to a Websense server when sending them through a VPN tunnel.

Note: The source interface is different from the outgoing interface, which is the egress interface for VPN traffic.

Server: The IP address of DNS name of the Websense server.

Port: The port number to which the NetScreen device sends URL filtering requests to the Websense server. The default port number is 15868.

Timeout: The period of time (in seconds) that the NetScreen device waits for a response from the Websense server. If the NetScreen device does not receive a response before this interval elapses, it either permits the HTTP GET request or denies it, whichever way you configure it to behave. (The default timeout is 10 seconds.)

Fail-Mode: The action that the NetSceen device takes if it loses connectivity with the Websense server: block unfiltered HTTP GET requests or permit unfiltered HTTP GET requests.

Connection: The status for connectivitiy to the Websense server. The status can be Up, Down, or Not Applicable.

Configure: Click the Edit option to change a configuration.
