Quick start

After the LANCOM Content Filter has been installed, the settings are ready to get you started quickly.

Important: The operation of the LANCOM Content Filter may be restricted by your country's data protection regulations or by company guidelines. Please check any regulations that may apply before putting the system into operation.

You activate the Content Filter by:

  1. Start the Setup Wizard for the device.
  2. Select the Setup Wizard for configuring the Content Filter.




  3. Select one of the pre-defined security profiles (basic, work, parental control):
    • Basic profile: This profile mainly blocks access to the categories pornography, illegal, violent or discriminatory content, drugs, SPAM and phishing
    • Work profile: In addition to the settings for the basic profile, this profile also blocks the categories shopping, job search, gaming, music, radio and certain communications services such as chat.
    • Parental control profile: In addition to the settings for the basic profile, this profile also blocks nudity and weapons/military.
    Should the firewall be deactivated, the Wizard will switch the firewall on. The Wizard then checks if the firewall rule is set correctly for the Content Filter and, if necessary, will take corrective measures. After activating the Content Filter with the steps outlined above, all stations in the network are being filtered according to the settings of the selected content-filter profile and the as-yet empty blacklist and whitelist. You can adapt these settings for your purposes, if necessary. The wizard activates the content filter for the time frame ALWAYS.
