Operational Modes > Mobile Mode:

Administrator Console Settings
If the Web Filter is set up in the mobile mode, the unit will not filter segments on the network but will only filter end users on mobile workstations physically located outside of the organization. The end user's profile is based on the machine's MAC address instead of the workstation's IP address.

NOTE: If using the mobile mode, the following features are not available: Minimum Filtering Level, Time Profile, Override Account, Exception URL, LDAP Authentication, and the Warn filter setting (end users will be blocked instead of receiving a warning page). Additionally, if using the selective Instant Messaging feature, URLs will be blocked in the end user’s profile for the selected instant messaging options, but pattern files will be blocked at the global level for all instant messaging options.

Hardware Settings
A Web Filter physically set up in the mobile mode can work in conjunction with another Web Filter set up in invisible, router, or firewall mode.
