Cisco Cisco Web Security Appliance S670 Betriebsanweisung

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 to parse the 
access logs. If the first four characters of the custom URL category include a space, Sawmill for cannot 
properly parse the access log entry. Instead, only use supported characters in the first four characters if 
you will use Sawmill for 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. 

Choose Web Security Manager > Custom URL Categories.

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

Enter the settings in the table below for the custom URL category. 

(Optional) Click Sort URLs to sort all addresses in the Sites field.

Once you sort the addresses, you cannot retrieve their original order.

Submit and Commit Changes.

Category Name

Enter a name for the URL category. This name appears when you configure 
URL filtering for policy groups.

List Order

Choose the order in the list of custom URL categories to place this category. 
Enter “1” for the topmost URL category.

The URL filtering engine evaluates a client request against the custom URL 
categories in the order specified.

Sites

Enter one or more addresses that belong in the custom category.

You can enter multiple addresses separated by line breaks or commas. 

Advanced: Regular 
Expressions

You can use regular expressions to specify multiple web servers that match 
the pattern you enter.

The URL filtering engine compares URLs with addresses entered in 
the Sites field first. If the URL of a transaction matches an entry in 
the Sites field, it is not compared to any expression entered here.

See 

 for more information about using 

regular expressions.
