SonicOS 5.8.1 Administrator Guide
• Consent Accepted URL (filtering on) - When a user accepts the terms outlined in the
Consent page and chooses to access the Internet with the protection of Content Filtering,
they are shown a Web page confirming their selection. Enter the URL of this page in the
Consent Accepted (filtering on) field. This page must reside on a Web server and be
accessible as a URL by users on the network.
Mandatory Filtered IP Addresses
When a user opens a Web browser on a computer using mandatory content filtering, a consent
page is displayed. You must create the Web page that appears when the Web browser is
opened. It can contain text from an Acceptable Use Policy, and notification that violations are
logged or blocked.
This Web page must reside on a Web server and be accessible as a URL by users on the LAN.
This page must also contain a link to a page contained in the SonicWALL security appliance
that tells the device that the user agrees to have filtering enabled. The link must be
<192.168.168.168/iAcceptFilter.html>, where the SonicWALL LAN IP address is used instead
of 192.168.168.168.
Enter the URL of this page in the Consent Page URL (mandatory filtering) field and click OK.
Once the SonicWALL security appliance has been updated, a message confirming the update
is displayed at the bottom of the Web browser window.
Adding a New Address
The SonicWALL security appliance can be configured to enforce content filtering for certain
computers on the LAN. Click Add to display the Add Filtered IP Address Entry window. Enter
the IP addresses of these computers in the Add New Address field and then click the Submit
button. Up to 128 IP addresses can be entered.
To remove a computer from the list of computers to be filtered, highlight the IP address in the
Mandatory Filtered IP Addresses list and click Delete.
