You can also create IP and URL indicators to unblock users from a SmartScreen block or selectively bypass web content filtering blocks of sites that you'd like to allow to load. For example, consider a case where you have web content filtering set to block all social media websites. However, the marketing team has a requirement to use a specific social media site to monitor their ad placements. In this case, you can unblock the specific social media site by creating a domain Allow indicator and assigning it to the marketing team's device group.
