Add URL Category

{{ $t('productDocDetail.updateTime') }}: 2026-02-05

To set custom URLs. On the URL Category page, click Add to enter the Add URL Category dialog box.

Name: Define a name that is easy to understand.

Description: Define a description that is easy to understand.

URL: Add the URL that needs to be set. A URL group can contain multiple URLs, and URLs support wildcard matching.

URL Keyword: Automatically matches the URL group based on the keywords in the URL. If the domain name being accessed contains the set keywords, it is identified as the URL group. The matching priority of domain name keywords is lower than the built-in URL database and custom URL database.

1. An asterisk (*) is used as the wildcard. For example, if you want to set a URL to indicate Sina subpages, including Sina News (news.sina.com.cn), Sina Sports (sports.sina.com.cn), and Sina Entertainment (ent.sina.com.cn), enter "*.sina.com" in URL.

2. The asterisk (*) only indicates the matching of L1 domain names and can only be placed in the front of the URL (not in the middle). Otherwise, the URL will not take effect.

3. The URL category database does not support IPv6. Web filter does not process URLs in the IPv6 environment, and access to IPv6 websites is not logged.
