When adding URLs to the lists, keep the following in mind:
- The Approved URL List takes precedence over the Blocked URL List.
- Approving or blocking a URL implies approving or blocking all of its sub domains.
- Use semicolons to separate multiple entries.
- Do not use the following characters: " < > |
- The * wildcard character is allowed. For more information, see the Wildcard Support table below.
Refer to the following table for correct usage of wildcards:
