Exception URL
The Exception tab is used for allowing users to be blocked from
accessing specified URLs and/or to be allowed to access specified
URLs blocked at the minimum filtering level.
NOTE: Settings in this window work in conjunction with those made
in the Override Account window and in the Minimum Filtering Level
window maintained by the global administrator. IP group users with
an override account will be able to access URLs set up to be blocked
in this window, if the global administrator activates bypass settings
in the Minimum Filtering Bypass Options tab.
A URL can contain a domain name such as http://www.yahoo.com or
an IP address such as http://216.109.118.77/. The asterisk (*) wildcard
and period (.) can be used in the URL entry. For example: *.yahoo.com
will block all URLs containing the text following the period and
asterisk. A minimum of three wildcard levels can be entered (e.g.
*.yahoo.com), up to a maximum of six wildcard levels, (e.g. *.mail.attachments.message.yahoo.com).
The following
types of URL formats also can be entered in this window:
• octal format - e.g. http://0106.0125.0226.0322
• hexadecimal short format - e.g. http://0x465596d2
• hexadecimal long format - e.g. http://0x46.0x55.0x96.0xd2
• decimal value format - e.g. http://1180014290
• escaped hexadecimal format - e.g. http://
%57%57%57.%41%44%44%49%43%54%49%4E%47%47%41%4D%45%
53.%43%4F%4D
• query string format - e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?=v=3_Wfnj1llMU
