Example Configuration for Homes

Setting up for homes with minor children is pretty straight forward.

1️⃣ Follow the basic configuration steps to prepare for further configuration. Make sure you enable all the blocklists you intend to use. This will be the Default group and will not require special configuration. All computers accessible by students will automatically fall into the default category.

2️⃣ Create a single group called Adults.

3️⃣ Create a client for each computer, smartphone, tablet or other device that is only accessible by an adult user. In the Group Assignment column, assign each client to the Adult group.

4️⃣ Lastly, click on SidebarBlocklists. For the Adult blocklist, or any other blocklist, click on the dropdown box in the Group assignment column. Check Default and uncheck Adults.

ℹ️We recommend you read the section on providing maximum protection for kids. You can use those recommendations on all computers and devices safely all the time, and still blocklists as necessary. No one will be able to search for adult oriented topics, however, direct access to websites will be allowed.

All devices will be subject to filtering, even unknown ones. Only those specifically excluded will be able to access normally blocked content.
