Our Clearserver
Filters arrive at your business location already
pre-configured and ready for installation.
However, your IT Administrators will have to do a few simple steps
to complete the setup.
First at your
router/gateway, you will need to add an access
control list to allow port 80 traffic from
the Clearserver Filter and block all other
port 80 traffic to the internet.
Second, you must
setup your proxy settings by using automatic
proxy setting (WPAD, DHCPINFORM, or Active
Directory Group policy) or manually add proxy
settings to client pc’s.
Finally, you must
go to http://IP:8080 and setup filter preferences.
That’s it,
the Clearserver Filter is now ready to manage
and monitor your network.
Keep in mind,
your assigned Internet Management technicians
are available to answer any pre or post installation
questions via our toll free customer service
number.

6) Does the Clearserver
have an administrative GUI? Can I block and unblock
sites at my discretion? |

Yes, you can block
or unblock pages that you deem appropriate or inappropriate
from your location in real time. You need NOT to
contact us. |

a blocked page? |

At the block page,
simply follow the link to bypass, then put your username
and password and time of bypass and hit enter. |

employees, how do I know when someone uses their
bypass? |
|

When an
employee bypasses, an email is automatically sent
to the assigned corporate network administrator
with the username and time of bypass. The corporate
network admin can also pull up a report on who
used their bypass and where they went.
