Firewall/Router that blocks access to all websites except th |
|
|
Hey guys,
I'm trying to find a router that will allow me to block all websites
except those I specified. I found that d-link routers have this
function but they only allow 10 allowable domains, I called tech
support to see if there was an upgrade or anything that could be done
to increment the number, they said no.
I need a router that will allow 15-30 allowable domains.
Anyone have any experience or recommendations. Also, most routers have
the url filtering function, but only have the option to enter forbidden
domains. In my configuration I need to add allowable domains and block
access to everything else.
Take Care and thanks for the help,
LT |

Take the easy way out, and use something like
Websense or SurfControl. You can select the
categories of content and be done. Just set it
and forget it. |

A Fortigate will allow you to whitelist more than 10 domains and blacklist
the rest. You can even use string matches or wildcard matches for your
blocks or permits.
You could also do it by policy based on IP.
You could also use category blocking on the Fortigate if you decided to do
that.

But Websense, Surfcontrol, and similar programs are so much easier. It is
the easiet way to do it. Just set and forget.
Have you priced websense recently?

Putting 15 whitelisted sites in your firewall is difficult?

So, you think putting up a file server, installing an application,
configuring your firewall to interface with it, and putting your list in, is
easier than putting the list in a single browser page directly on the
firewall? And paying thousands of extra dollars for the privledge to boot?
