Proxy options
What is the best method to block access to the web other than specific websites?
For a small group of public access computers I have been using Proxy Action/ Web Proxy/Explicit/URL request but a desired target URL is now referencing other URL to load content. This has proven a pain adding all those 3rd party sites to the URL request list. Is there a better method?

Hi @FF828
You can make specific pattern matches inside of webblocker's exceptions, which can do that for you.
See:

@james.carson I was using the Firebox as a proxy on specific workstations. How do I apply the Webblocker exception to those specific workstations?
@FF828
You would need to make a webblocker policy specific to that user/group (if you are using SSO) or specific to a policy if you're sorting by IP address.
