I am trying to configure a sonicwall NSA 3600 to connect to a URL feed and IP feed for blacklist's. The documentation provided for this is not very clear and seems to miss some steps along the way which makes it abit difficult to follow. What we have done so far as per documentation is as follows:<br />
<br />
1. We have selected the option for API Threat Protection on Sonicwall;<br />
2. We have configured the access rule from LAN to WAN;<br />
<br />
We are now stuck on how to configure a Content Filtering Policy (CFS) for a feed to an external source for URL blocking.<br />
<br />
Appreciate any assistance that may be provided.<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.
