Configuring upstream proxy source and destination filters

You can create source and destination filters used when applying upstream proxy policies. The Smoothwall Filter uses destination and source filters to determine the upstream proxy policy to apply based on the destination domain(s), IP(s) or destination URL regular expressions.

Procedure

    1. On the WEB PROXY menu, under the Upstream proxy, click Filters.
    2. Under the Manage upstream proxy filter section, select if you want to configure a Destination or Source filter Type.
    3. Enter a meaningful Name and descriptive Comment.
    4. Enter the source or destination IP address, IP address range, network address or hostname. For example:
      • 192.168.0.1
      • 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.254
      • 192.168.0.0/24
      • hostname.local
    5. For a destination filter, click Advanced » and within Destination regular expression URLs, enter one regular expression URL, including protocol, per line.

Note: The full URL isn't available for HTTPS requests.
