QuestionQ46

Advanced Access Control

URL Filtering is an essential component of Web Security on the Gateway. When a client submits a URL request and the Security Gateway must perform a URL lookup, from where is the sync-request forwarded if one is required?

Explanation

RAD kernel space is the kernel-side intermediary for URL Filtering lookups. It forwards a required synchronous request to RAD user space, where the lookup can be processed and, when necessary, obtain updated website categorization through the Check Point Online Web Service. The Security Gateway caches categorization responses locally.
