SonicOS 7.1 Security Services

Customizing Web Block Page Settings

The Botnet Filter has a default message that is displayed when a page is blocked. You can customize this message and include your own logo.

To create a custom message and include a custom logo

  1. Navigate to POLICY | Security Services > Botnet Filter.
  2. Ensure the Include Botnet Filter Block Details option is selected. This option is selected by default.

    When enabled, this option shows block details such as reason for the block, IP address, and country. When disabled, this option hides all information.

  3. Do one of the following:
    • To use the default message displayed in the Alert text field, This site has been blocked by the network administrator., click the Default Blocked Page button.
    • Specify a custom message to be displayed in the Botnet Filter Block page in the Alert text field. Your message can be up to 100 characters long.
  4. Optionally, in the Base64-encoded Logo Icon field, you can specify a Base 64-encoded GIF icon to be displayed as well.

    Ensure the icon is valid and make the size as small as possible. The recommended size is 400 x 65 pixels.

  5. To see a preview of your customized message and logo (or the default message and logo), click the Preview button. A warning message displays.
  6. Click OK. The Web Site Blocked message displays.
  7. Close the Web Site Blocked message.
  8. Click Accept.
