Configuring Content Filtering Settings

Content filtering allows system administrators to block specific commands and URL extensions
from going out through the access point’s WAN port. Therefore, content filtering affords system
administrators selective control on the content proliferating the network and is a powerful data and
network screening tool. Content filtering allows the blocking of up to 10 files or URL extensions and
allows blocking of specific outbound HTTP, SMTP, and FTP requests.

To configure content filtering for the Mobility 7131 Access Point:

1. Select Network Configuration -> WAN -> Content Filtering from the Mobility 7131 Access Point

menu tree.

Life Time

Use the
