Adding CFS Profile Objects
SonicOS creates a default CFS Profile Object, CFS Default Profile. You can edit this CFS Profile Object, but you cannot delete it. If you do not want to use the predefined CFS profile object, you can configure a custom CFS profile object.
To add a custom CFS Profile Object
- Navigate to OBJECT | Profile Objects > Content Filter.
-
Click the Add icon.
By the default, Settings tab displays.
- Enter a Name of the CFS Profile Object.
-
Set the URI LIST CONFIGURATION.
You can set one of the options listed below for Allowed URI List and Forbidden URI List:
- Leave the selection as None (default).
- Select the existing URI List Object.
-
Create new URI Object if you do not find the required list object in the drop-down menu. Choosing this option displays the Add CFS URI List Object dialog box.
For more information about creating a URI List Object, refer to Adding URI List Objects.
- Select the Allowed URI List that contains URIs for which unrestricted access is allowed. Treat this list as a white list.
- Select the Forbidden URI List that contains URIs for which access is not allowed at all. Treat this list as a black list.
-
Select the URI List Searching Order to set which URI list is searched first during filtering:
- Allowed URI List First (default)

Select the Operation for Forbidden URI to choose the action to be taken when a URI on the Forbidden List is encountered:
