Hi all,

I just installed my endian firewall in my network but when I tried to block a certain web site, it doesn't work, anybody can help?

Pls. find attached screen shot of my proxy and content filtering.

Thanks,

Did you change the 'Access Policy'?  The default  'Access Policy' uses an 'antivirus only' setting for filtering.  You will need to change that to use the 'default filter profile' which you modified.  Also, you only need to use 'facebook.com' (www not needed), etc.,  in order to block the sites.

Hi speccompsol;

Thanks for your help and it works. But I noticed that every time I made and apply changes  to my  Proxy, a proxy notify message will appear(see attached) but it will take too long that i even close my browser but changes will still effect. Is this normal in Endian firewall?

Anyway, thanks again for your prompt reply and I am now working how to block https site in which facebook.com belongs.

There is a bug fix for this although it has not been put/released into the updates to date.

Save the files attached to the bug fix and then copy them to your EFW box to the locations specified in the bug fix.

Should be good to go.
