Browsing Time Policy

You can set the Browsing Time Policy for your Clearswift Gateway.

To specify the Browsing Time Policy:

1. From the Policy Center Home page, click Global Web Policy. The Global Web Policy page appears.
2. Move the mouse pointer over the Browsing Time Policy section and click Click here to change these settings.
3. By default, Clearswift Gateway makes the following assumptions about the Browsing Time:

• A user will take a maximum of 120 seconds to read a page before moving to the next. You can enter a new value between 2 and 600 seconds. If you enter a lower or higher value, the Save icon becomes disabled.

• If a user overrides a block page allow an additional 10 minutes browsing time. You can enter a new value between 5 and 60 minutes. If you enter a lower or higher value, the Save icon becomes disabled.

  This is the value referred to as a 'short time' by the block page encountered by the user: You can continue browsing for a short time.

• If enabled by specifying the default action to be performed on requests and responses on the route (see Editing A Policy Route), the user will be shown a warning page when their browsing quota has 10 minutes left. You can enter a new value between 5 and 60 minutes. If you enter a lower or higher value, the Save icon becomes disabled.

4. Click Save.
5. Apply the configuration.
