Note If an entry is deleted from the local list and the router is configured to use URL
filtering servers, entries that match ones that you are deleting from the local list
may exist on those servers.
Use the Delete All button to delete all entries on the router. If no local list is
configured on the router, the router must rely on the configured URL filter servers.
If you want to retrieve the URL list you are deleting at a later time, use the Export
URL List button to save the URL list to your PC before deleting all the entries.
When you save a URL list to your PC the list is given a .CSV extension.
Importing URL Lists from your PC
Click the Import URL List button to import a URL list from your PC to the
router. The URL list that you select must have a .txt or .CSV extension. After you
select the list on your PC, Cisco SDM displays a dialog that allows you to specify
what you want to do with each entry in the list. See Import URL List for more
information.
Add or Edit Local URL
Use this window to add or edit a URL entry for the local URL list on the router.
Enter a full domain name or a partial domain name and choose whether to Permit
or Deny requests for this URL.
If you enter a full domain name, such as www.somedomain.com, all requests that
include that domain name, such as www.somedomain.com/news or
www.somedomain.com/index will be permitted or denied based on the setting you
choose in this dialog. These requests will not be sent to the URL filtering servers
that the router is configured to use.
If you enter a partial domain name, such as .somedomain.com, all requests that
end with that string, such as www.somedomain.com/products or
wwwin/somedomain.com/eng will be permitted denied based on the setting you
choose in this dialog. These requests will not be sent to the URL filtering servers
that the router is configured to use.
