The ordering of the content filter policies is important as they are used in the
order they are listed. The ZyWALL checks requests for Web sessions
against the list of content filter policies (starting from the first in the list). The
ZyWALL’s content filter feature blocks or allows the Web session according
to the first matching content filter policy and does not check any other
content filter policies. The ZyWALL does not perform content filter on Web
session requests that do not match any of the content filter policies.
