  • 1.  project to block websites by catagories and content using SEP/SNAC.

    I have been assigned a project to block websites by catagories and content using SEP/SNAC.  I have ran through multiple scenarios, all with extensive admin over head.  Does anyone have any expirence with this type of requirement.  I am perfectly aware there are more appropiate software solutions, but the customer bought this one.

    There is no way to do this with SEP/SNAC. SEP/SNAC does not have built-in content filtering. You can block sites using the firewall, but there is not an option to block by content or catagory.

    I know but I have to do my "due diligence" and throw it out there.

    if you have a list of IPs, than you can do it through firewall policy.
    But this would be hell of a work. And I cannot imagine how would a firewall policy or SEP client behave when it has thousands of IP addresses in it.

    So I think you should persuade your manager that this is not the correct product for this.
