Using Application & URL Filtering with VSX

When you configure Virtual Systems to use the Application Control and URL Filtering, make sure that the VSX Gateway (VS0) can connect to the Internet. Updates are done only through this Virtual System.

To enable Application & URL Filtering Categories on Virtual Systems:

1. If applicable, configure proxy settings for the VSX Gateway (VS0):
   1. In SmartConsole, from the Gateways & Servers view, double-click the VSX Gateway (VS0).
   2. From the navigation tree, select Network Management > Proxy.
   3. Configure the proxy settings, and click OK.
2. Enable Application Control and URL Filtering on the required Virtual Systems.

   Note - You do not have to enable them on the VSX Gateway (VS0).

3. Install policies on the relevant Virtual Systems.

For more about Application & URL Filtering, see the R80.20 Security Management Administration Guide.
