Local Lists

URL / Keywords Local Lists

The URL/Keyword Local Lists are used to perform Actions for specific URLs for a selected Group policy. Only users assigned to that Policy’s Group, during times when the Policy is active, will be affected. Lists allow for any actions (allow, deny, assign a category, rewrite the whole URL). Local Lists have a higher priority than Shared Lists. However, System-wide Lists have a higher priority than both Local and Shared Lists. See 'How Processing Steps are Checked'.

The Select All / Deselect All box allows you to select or deselect all the items in the list. The More and the Trash icon display when a List item is selected. The Trash icon lets you delete the select items from the list. The More icon displays a menu containing the items shown in the image below.
