Within the platform, we are able to control the web filtering levels which a client receives by listing the IP address or range and then associating that listing with the policy of choice.

Please Note – The most specific client setting applies!

An example here would be where we want to

• enable BYOD filtering to a IP used on the wireless system
• enable Staff access from the staff DHCP range
• enable Student access from an IP address Block

Change filtering for a Single IP Address
