11.2.2 Adding Rules for Address-Based Filtering
Introduction
Address-based filtering has a higher priority than content-based filtering. This means that when you are blocking a specific
category, you can still access a specific site if you allow it in the address-based filter.
Example
If you block content from the Finance / Investment category and allow access to netbanking.mybank.com,
netbanking.mybank.com will still be accessible.
Options
With the address-based filter you can:
 Deny access to a specific web site.
 Allow access to a specific web site.
 Redirect a web site.
 Redirect all web sites.
