Approved URL Lists: Adding

HTTP > Configuration > Approved Lists > URL Lists | Add

List Name—Type a brief but descriptive name for the approved list. Names must be unique, and will appear in the list when you click HTTP > Configuration > Approved Lists > URL Lists.
Match—Enter a Web site, a keyword, phrase, or a string of characters in the field, and then tell IWSVA how to apply the match. This field supports both the ? and * wildcards. Entries in this field are added one-by-one to the Approved List.
Web site—Limits the search to the string as a whole; used with one or more wildcards, this type of exemption rule can be especially useful for allowing access to an entire Web site. There is no need to include http:// or https:// in the URL (it is automatically stripped).

URL keyword—Looks for any occurrence of the letters or numbers within a URL, and will match regardless of where the string is found (the string "partner" would be considered a match for "http://www.playboy.com/partner.htm" and the URL exempted). Using wildcards in this field greatly increases the chance of false positives and unexpected results.
String—Limits the search to the string as a whole, for example to target a specific site, page, file, or other particular item.
Note: For HTTPS decryption policies, the strings to match vary depending on whether you set IWSVA in proxy or transparency mode.

- In proxy mode, IWSVA matches the domain names, not the full URL. Thus, you only need to specify the domain names.

- In transparency mode (WCCP or bridge mode), IWSVA matches the CommonNames in the server certificates received.
Import approved list—You can import an existing list of URLs that you want exempt from the WRS and file type blocking rules in an HTTP scanning policy, Applet or ActiveX policy, or URL filtering. For example, if you have a list of URLs from Trend Micro's WebManager, or URLs you have compiled using a text editor, you can import the list rather than enter them one-by-one. Imported lists must conform to a defined standard.
