Content Filter Status

If SonicWall CFS is activated, the Content Filter Status section displays the status of the Content Filter Server, as well as the date and time that your subscription expires. The expiration date and time is displayed in Universal Time Code (UTC) format.

You can also access the SonicWall CFS URL Rating Review Request form by clicking on the here link in If you believe that a Web site is rated incorrectly or you wish to submit a new URL, click here.

If SonicWall CFS is not activated, you must purchase a license subscription for full content filtering functionality, including custom CFS Policies.
