Cisco Cisco Web Security Appliance S670 Betriebsanweisung

Add a custom URL category.

Edit custom URL category.

Delete custom URL category.

The Web Security appliance uses the first four characters of custom URL category 
names preceded by “c_” in the access logs. Consider the custom URL category 
name if you use Sawmill for IronPort to parse the access logs. If the first four 
characters of the custom URL category include a space, Sawmill for IronPort 
cannot properly parse the access log entry. Instead, only use supported characters 
in the first four characters if you will use Sawmill for IronPort to parse the access 
logs. If you want to include the full name of a custom URL category in the access 
logs, add the %XF format specifier to the access logs. For more information on 
how to do this, see 

It is possible to create multiple custom URL categories and include the same URL 
in each category. The order of the custom URL categories matters. Categories 
listed higher in the list take priority over categories listed lower. When you 
include these custom URL categories in the same Access, Decryption, or IronPort 
Data Security Policy group and define different actions to each category, the 
action of the higher included custom URL category takes effect. 

To create or edit a custom URL category:

Navigate to the Web Security Manager > Custom URL Categories page.

To create a custom URL category, click Add Custom Category. To edit an 
existing custom URL category, click the name of the URL category.
