How to exclude a domain or specific website from Web Content Control disallowed site categories?

Issue:

How to exclude a domain or specific website from Web Content Control disallowed site categories? The site belongs to a blocked category but users need to be able to access it.

Resolution:

If a website or domain has been assigned a category that the administrator wants to have as disallowed, the Trusted sites exception list can be used to allow users to access the site.

The administrator can add the site as trusted by following these steps:

Log in to Policy Manager Console
Highlight a host or policy domain from the Domain Tree
Go to the Settings tab
Go to Web content control settings
Click Add from the right side of the Trusted sites list
Add the site or domain URL in the address field
Distribute the policy

Once the policy has been distributed, users will be able to access the site even though it belongs to a disallowed site category.
