to block traffic to

In the example below, the URL request for
www.abc.com will be sent to the remote web server because
it is listed in the trusted list, whilst the URL request for
www.google or www.google.com will be dropped,
because
www.google is in the forbidden list.
Example: Andy wishes to disable all WEB traffic except for ones listed in the trusted domain, which
would prevent Bobby from accessing other web sites. Andy selects both functions in the Domain
Filtering and thinks that it will stop Bobby. But Bobby knows this function, Domain Filtering, ONLY
disables all WEB traffic except for Trusted Domain, BUT not its IP address. If this is the situation,
Block surfing by IP address function can be handy and helpful to Andy. Now, Andy can prevent Bobby
from accessing other sites.

prevent someone who wants to damage your system via standard HTTP protocol.
Block surfing by IP address: Preventing someone who uses the IP address as URL for
skipping Domains Filtering function. Activates only and if Domain Filtering enabled.
