R3000IR IntRoduCtIon

Thank you for choosing to evaluate the 8e6 Technologies R3000IR Internet Filter with Integrated Reporter. This product combines the R3000 Internet Filter with the ER Enter­prise Reporter to track end user Internet activity and generate reports that assist admin-
istrators in developing policies and targeting sites to be ltered, in order to maximize bandwidth utilization and productivity.
The R3000 can be congured to block specic Web sites or service ports, thereby pro­tecting your organization against lost productivity, network bandwidth issues, and pos-
sible legal problems that can result from the misuse of Internet resources. This product also features expansive library categories, instant message and peer-to-peer blocking,
user authentication, and intuitive screens and elds for ease of use when conguring and maintaining the server, as well as managing user and group ltering proles.
The ER is comprised of the server and client application. Once the ER server is con-
gured and R3000 log les have populated the database, an administrator can use the
ER client reporting application to virtually generate an unlimited number of queries and reports from data in the database. This data shows which end user is accessing which site, the duration of each site visit, and the frequency of these visits. The client gives
the administrator the ability to interrogate massive datasets through exible drill-down technology, until the desired view is obtained, and then memorize and save the view to a user-dened report menu for repetitive, scheduled execution and distribution.
Quick setup procedures—to implement the best ltering practices for the scenarios
described in the second paragraph—are included in the Best Filtering Practices section that follows the Conclusion of this guide.

Rack Mount the Server
Rack Setup Precautions
Warning:
Before rack mounting the server, the physical environment should be set up to safely accommodate the server. Be sure that:
The weight of all units in the rack is evenly distributed. Mounting of the equipment in
the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven
mechanical loading.
The rack will not tip over when the server is mounted, even when the unit is fully extended from the rack.
For a single rack installation, stabilizers are attached to the rack.
For multiple rack installations, racks are coupled together.
Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment is maintained at all times. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
A power cord will be long enough to t into the server when properly mounted in the
rack and will be able to supply power to the unit.
The connection of the server to the power supply will not overload any circuits. Con­sideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
The server is only connected to a properly rated supply circuit. Reliable earthing (grounding) of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
The air ow through the server’s fan or vents is not restricted. Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air ow required for safe
operation of the equipment is not compromised.
The maximum operating ambient temperature does not exceed 104°F (40°C). If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the
maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specied by the manufacturer.
WARNING: Extend only one component at a time. Extending two or more
components simultaneously may cause the rack to become unstable.

NOTE:To restart the browser window, close both the R3000 Administrator con­sole and the R3000 Introductory Window. Begin a new session by opening a new browser window and then logging back into the Administrator console.
40 8e6 R3000iR Quick StaRt Guide

Step 2: Test the R3000 Console Connection

Now that the R3000IR is physically installed on your network and you have congured
its network settings, you need to test the unit to see if it is set up properly.
A. Restore the setup workstation you used for the Network Setup to its original settings,
and connect it to the network hub to create a “network workstation.” (You could also use another workstation already on the network that has Internet access.)
B. Launch IE on the network workstation, and enter the IP address you assigned to
LAN 1 (Step 1A, Quick Start menu: administration menu, or Step 1B, Network: LAN Settings, sub-step B). Be sure to include the port information :88 in the address eld. For example, if the R3000 were assigned an IP address of 10.10.10.10, you would enter http://10.10.10.10:88 in the browser window’s address eld.
C. Click Go. You should be prompted to log into the Administrator console, giving the
Username and Password.
If you can access the R3000 Administrator console, the R3000 is functioning on your network and you should proceed to Step 3.
If you cannot access the R3000 Administrator console, please verify the status of the
LAN connection in Windows on the network workstation, and then try enabling/disabling
the LAN connection. If that fails to work, check the following:
The R3000IR is turned on.
The R3000IR is connected to the same hub as your router/rewall.
Can the PC normally connect to the Internet?
Is the PC able to ping LAN 1 of the R3000?
Is the R3000 plugged into a switch instead of a hub?
Is there a caching server?
Can the R3000 ping the ltered PC? (Refer to the System Command window in the
Diagnostics section of the R3000 User Guide) Did you restart the R3000 after changing the network settings?
Do you have both LAN ports connected to your network hub?
If still unsuccessful, contact an 8e6 Technologies solutions engineer or technical sup-
port representative.

Step 3: Test Filtering or Mobile Client Console Connection

Test Filtering
If this R3000 has been set up in the Invisible, Router, or Firewall mode, once you have
accessed the R3000 Administrator console, you should test ltering.
A. Test the R3000’s ltering by opening a browser window on a network workstation,
and going to http://test.8e6.net (an empty site for testing pornography ltering).
B. You should receive a block page. If you do not, contact an 8e6 Technologies solu-
tions engineer or technical support representative.
NOTE: Port 22 (SSH) must be open on your network to allow access by remote
technical support.
Test the Mobile Client Console Connection
If this R3000 has been set up in the Mobile mode, you do not need to test ltering. In­stead, once you have accessed the R3000 Administrator console, you should verify that the Mobile Client can be accessed by the R3000.
A. Use a workstation on which the Mobile Client is installed that is not on a ltered por-
tion of the LAN. Open a browser window on a network workstation, and then go to
http://test.8e6.net (an empty site for testing pornography ltering).
B. The connection should be blocked, and the block page served by the R3000 should
display in the browser’s Address eld. If you do not receive a block page, contact an
8e6 Technologies solutions engineer or technical support representative.
NOTE: Port 22 (SSH) must be open on your network to allow access by remote
technical support.

Filtering Scenarios

This collection of ltering scenarios is designed to help you get started ltering the net­work. Each scenario is followed by R3000 setup information. Please consult the “How to” section in the index of the R3000 User Guide for pages containing detailed, step-by-step
instructions on conguring and/or using the tools and features in that scenario.
I. Threats/Liabilities
1. Category block
Block categories that threaten your network/organization. In pertinent proles,
block access to the Security category group and other categories containing content
that threaten your organization.
To block categories in a prole, go to:
GROUP: Group > IP > member > member prole > Category tab
or GROUP: Group > Global Group > Global Group Prole > Category tab
In the R3000 User Guide index, see:
• How to: use library categories in a prole
2. Rule block
Use a rule to block categories that threaten your network/organization. Create
a rule that blocks access to the Security category group and other categories con-
taining content that threaten your organization, and then apply this rule to pertinent proles. Or use a dened rule—such as the 8e6 CIPA Compliance rule, if in the edu-
cational sector—to block related categories.
To create a rule and block categories in a prole, go to:
GROUP: Group > Global Group > Rules
Group > IP > member > member prole > Category tab
or Group > Global Group > Global Group Prole > Category tab
