Example: webfiltering for student and teacher accounts
The following example uses RADIUS SSO to apply web filtering to students, but not to teachers. Assume that the
RADIUS server is already configured to send RADIUS Start and Stop records to the FortiGate unit. There are two RADIUS user groups, students and teachers, recorded in the default attribute Class. The workstations are connected to port1, port2 connects to the RADIUS server, and port3 connects to the Internet.
Configure the student web filter profile:
- Go to Security Profiles > Web Filter and select Create New (the “+” button).
- Enter the following and select OK.
| Name | student |
| Inspection Mode | Proxy |
| FortiGuard Categories | Enable. Right-click the Potentially Liable category and select Block. Repeat for Adult/Mature Content and Security Risk. |
