Configuring local ratings
Users can create user-defined categories then specify the URLs that belong to the
category. This allows users to block groups of web sites on a per profile basis. The
ratings are included in the global URL list with associated categories and
compared in the same way the URL block list is processed.
The local ratings override the FortiGuard server ratings and appear in reports as
“Local Category”.
To create a local rating
• Go to Web Filter > FortiGuard - Web Filter > Local Ratings.
