Domain Lookup
Navigate to the sidebar menu: Tools and ensure you are on the Domain Lookup tab.
Overview
The Domain Lookup module is designed to help you quickly identify the category of any domain and understand exactly how your active security policies are treating it. This is highly useful for troubleshooting false positives, verifying restricted content, and auditing your network security rules.
How it works: You type a domain name into the search bar and run the lookup. The system queries the global threat intelligence database to determine the site categories and then cross-references this data against your configured policies to show you a simulated access result.
Interface Overview
The interface is divided into the top search controls and the bottom results area.
