Managing RBL Services

You can add additional RBL services in the Real-time Black List Services section.

The Real-time Black List Services section displays information about and actions for the available RBL services:

RBL Service – The name of the RBL service. Two are provided by SonicWall, but you can add others:
sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org – Spamhaus Project, which provides realtime anti-spam protection for Internet networks
dnsbl.sorbs.net – SORBS (Spam and Open Relay Blocking System), which provides access to its DNS-based Black List (DNSBL) database
Response Codes – Mouse over the Comment icon to display a list of response codes. For information about response codes, see About RBL Lists.
Enable – Select the check box to enable the RBL service. The check boxes for the two provided services are selected by default.

To disable an RBL service, unselect its check box. This does not delete the entry from the table, so you can enable the service in the future.

Configure – Displays icons for various actions:
Edit icon – Displays the Edit RBL Domain dialog. See Editing an RBL Service.

To clear these statistics, click the Clear STatistics button.
