Clearing the Web URL block list

Go to Web Filter > Web URL Block.

Select Clear URL Block List

to remove all URLs and patterns from the Web URL

block list.

Note: Do not use regular expressions in the Web URL block list. You can use regular
expressions in the Web Pattern Block list to create URL patterns to block. See

“Configuring

FortiGate Web pattern blocking” on page 294

Note: You can type a top-level domain suffix (for example, “com” without the leading period) to
block access to all URLs with this suffix.

Note: URL blocking does not block access to other services that users can access with a web
browser. For example, URL blocking does not block access to ftp://ftp.badsite.com.
Instead, you can use firewall policies to deny FTP connections.

Note: You must select the Web URL Block option in the content profile to enable the URL
blocking.
