Creating Custom URL Category Lists

Before You Begin

  • Read the UTM Overview topic.

  • Decide what kind of filtering you want for the Content Security policy: Web filtering, antispam, antivirus, or content filtering.

Use the Create URL Category page to create custom URL category lists. A URL category is a list of URL patterns grouped under a single title.

Note:

This page will also list the predefined URL categories.

To create URL category lists:

  1. Select Configure > UTM Policy > Custom URL Categories.
  2. Click the + icon to create a new custom URL category list.
  3. Complete the configuration according to the guidelines provided in Table 1.
  4. Click Finish. A new custom URL category list is created.

URL Patterns

To add URLs to a list, select the URLs in the Available column and move them to the Selected column.

Click Create a New Pattern to create a new URL pattern. Note: A URL pattern is a list of URLs organized into a group. You can later assign this list to a URL category.

Separate multiple URLs with commas. The URL List field supports the *, ., [, ], and ? wildcard characters. Precede all wildcard characters with http://. You can only use * at the beginning of a URL followed by a period, and you can only use ? at the end of a URL.
