Need help using url filterting.

[ohusain]

I am a small business owner and need to be able to block certain websites such as facebook, etc.   I have a 908e router and tried bocking websites but I don't think I'm doing it correctly through the router.  Is there a place that can give me step by step process.  What comes up in the router as help is very limited and I've done the recommendation such as "facebook.com" and deny but that is not working.  Any help is appreciated.

ohusain,

Thanks for posting!  Below is a sample configuration of how you might apply a URL filter to an Ethernet LAN interface.

ip firewall

!

ip urlfilter allowmode

!

ip urlfilter myFilter http

!

ip urlfilter exclusive-domain deny www.facebook.com

!

interface eth 0/1

  ip urlfilter myFilter in

More information can be found in the guides Configuring Top Website Reporting and URL Filtering in AOS and Configuring Websense and URL Filtering in AOS.  Please let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks!
