By means of the browser Useragent filters administrators can allow or prohibit certain browsers for users.
The initial default Useragent list is already included in the product. To apply the Useragent-specific filters, perform the following steps:
|
Name |
Description |
|---|---|
|
Step 1. Create a Useragent list. |
Click Add and specify a name for the new UserAgent list. |
|
Step 2. Add the necessary browser Useragents to the new list. |
Add the Useragent that you need. The full list of Useragent strings can be found here: http://www.useragentstring.com/pages/useragentstring.php |
|
Step 3. Create a content filtering rule with one or more lists. |
Please refer to section Content filtering |
Administrators can create custom Useragent lists and distribute them centrally across all workstations on which UserGate is installed. To create a custom list, perform the following steps:
|
Name |
Description |
|---|---|
|
Step 1. Create a file with the necessary Useragent. |
Create a file called list.txt with the Useragent list. |
|
Step 2. Create an archive containing this file. |
Pack the file into the archive called list.zip. |
|
Step 3. Create a file containing the version of the list. |
Create a file named version.txt and specify the list version number in it, e.g. 3. Make sure to increment this value each time the list is updated. |
|
Step 4. Publish the files on your web server. |
Publish list.zip and version.txt on your site so that users could download them. |
|
Step 5. Create a Useragent list and provide the URL for updates. |
Create a Useragent list on each UserGate instance. Make sure to provide the address from which to download the updates. UserGate will be checking for a new version on your site each 4 hour and will update the list once a new version is available. |
