Example Configuration for Schools
Schools should usually assume that all computers need kid-level filtering, then exclude those devices that are inaccessible by students..
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.
Create a group for each group that will have computers inaccessible by students. For example, Admins, Teachers, and Staff.
Create a client for each computer that will belong to one of the above groups, Principal, 1st_Grade_Teacher, and Front_Desk. In the Group Assignment column, assign each client to its corresponding group. For example, assign Principal to the group Admins, 1st_Grade_Teacher to the group Teachers, and so on. Groups can have unlimited members.
Lastly, click on Sidebar → Blocklists. For the Adult blocklist, or any other blocklist, click on the dropdown box in the Group assignment column. Check Default and uncheck Admins, Teachers, and Staff. There is no need to change any other blocklists.
We 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.
