Creating URL Patterns

Before You Begin

  • Read the UTM Overview topic.

  • Decide what kind of filtering you want for the Content Security policy: Web filtering, antispam, antivirus, or content filtering.

Use the Create URL Patterns page to create custom URL patterns. A URL pattern is a list of URLs organized into a group. You can later assign this list to a URL category.

To create URL patterns:

  1. Select Configure > UTM Policy > URL Patterns.
  2. Click the + icon to create a new custom URL pattern list.
  3. Complete the configuration according to the guidelines provided in Table 1.
  4. Click Finish. A new custom URL pattern list is created.
