FortiGuard categories
FortiGuard is a web filtering solution provided by Fortinet. FortiGuard sorts thousands
of Web pages into a wide variety of categories that users can allow, block, or monitor.
The FortiGate unit accesses the nearest FortiGuard server to determine the category
of a requested Web page and then follows the policy configured for that user or
interface.
Please see
“Category block” on page 337
for more information about how FortiGuard
works and how to configure it.
Table 40
describes each FortiGuard category.
