A: To configure URL filtering based on URL categories, you need to create a URL filtering profile, specify a control action, and configure a security policy. In the security policy, specify the data flow for which URL filtering is performed and reference the URL filtering profile.
Create a URL filtering profile.
You can use the default URL filtering profile or create a URL filtering profile as required.
Set control action parameters in the URL filtering profile.
The device provides two methods of configuring URL category control actions:
Method 1: Select the preset high, medium, or low level to simplify operations. In each level, the action for specific categories is set to Block.
Method 2: Define the action for each category. This method applies if you are clear about the URL categories that need to be controlled.
Configure a security policy, specify matching conditions, and reference the URL filtering profile in the security policy.
