Access Control URL Filtering Configure HTTP Response Pages

Last updated: Jul 29, 2025

Configure HTTP Response Pages

As part of access control, you can configure an HTTP response page to display when the system blocks web requests, using either access control rules or the access control policy default action.

The response page displayed depends on how you block the session:

  • Block Response Page: Overrides the default browser or server page that explains that the connection was denied.

  • Interactive Block Response Page: Warns users, but also allows them to click a button (or refresh the page) to load the originally requested site. Users may have to refresh after bypassing the response page to load page elements that did not load.

If you do not choose a response page, the system blocks sessions without interaction or explanation.
