Webfilter Loggin Issue
Hi,
My 1240B running 4.0 RM3 patch 11 software and I have enabled WebFilter -> URLFilter to block the access to " msn-photolive.net" .
It works but my 1240B generate webfilter log message for each outgoing http access.
I have check all configuration options and don' t know how to make webfilter log the " bad access" only.
Could you tell me how to exclude the normal HTTP access from the webfilter log?
# The inspection mode is " flow-based"
# FortiGuard Categories is not selected, I use URL filter only.

In the webfilter profile, disable " Log all URLs" if it is enabled.

I found that, I am not able to post the reply message when Web-Filter enabled.
When I press " OK" button to post the reply, the Fortinet Webfilter blocked it...
I need to add fortinet to the allow list ?

OK, back to work:
in UTM Profiles > Web Filter > Profile,
- uncheck ' Log all URLs'
- uncheck ' FortiGuard Categories' as well if you don' t use them
- in ' Advanced Filter' , check ' Web URL Filter' and select the URL filter you' ve defined before
That should do it.

Hi Ede,
Both " Log all URLs" and " FortiGuard Categories" are unchecked. But I selected " Flow-based" inspection mode.
From the WebFilter log viewer, I still can see all URL which has been visited.

Jacky
