Mar 30, 2018 — ETP updates

  • YouTube Restricted Mode. ​SIA​ administrators can prevent end users from accessing mature video content. This setting is available within a policy configuration. If Safe Search is enabled, administrators can choose from strict and moderate restriction modes.

  • Top-Level Domains List. ​SIA​ administrators can now create a list with top-level domains. This feature allows an enterprise to apply policy actions to requests based on the top-level domain. You can create a top-level domains list on the Custom Lists page (Configuration > Lists).

  • New policy action. ​SIA​ now includes an Allow policy action. When assigned to a list in a policy, this action grants end users access to the domains and IP addresses in the list.

  • Policy action name changes. These policy actions were renamed:

    • Sinkhole action is now called Block – Sinkhole

    • Block Page action is now called Block – Error Page

    • Deny action is now called Block - DNS

      The behavior of these policy actions are the same. These actions continue to block DNS requests and direct end users to an error message.

  • Deny policy action no longer available for Akamai Security Lists. The Deny (now called Block – DNS) action is no longer available as a policy action for Akamai Security Lists. You can assign the Block – DNS action to custom lists only.

  • If an existing policy configuration used the Deny action for an Akamai Security List, this action was replaced with the
    Block – Error Page action. Block – Error Page directs end users to custom error pages that are designed in ​SIA​.
