Parental Control Menu Options
The Parental Control Menu lets you:
¾
Configure the rules for Internet access based on user or time period
¾
Configure the rules to block certain Internet contents and certain web sites
¾
View the event logs related to parental control
To set up Parental Control, you first set up Policies in the
Basic Setup
Menu. Next, you assign a user
name and password for each user on your network. Finally you apply the Policies to individual users
in the
User Setup
Menu. When you enable Parental Control, each user must log on to view Internet
content. The content a user may access will be defined by the policy that you assigned to that user. A
user profile may optionally be applied to a specific computer, so that no login is required for users of
that computer.

This Basic Setup page allows you to configure rules which block certain Internet content and certain

settings. When entered, these allow a user Internet access without the constraint of the rules entered
until the timer expires.
To access the Basic page:
1
Click

in the menu bar.

submenu.
