Operational Modes > Mobile Only Mode or Mobile Mode option (for Web Filter 4.x.xx software):

NOTE: The legacy Mobile Client product is available for use with Web Filters (Web Filter, R3000, IR, and WFR appliances) running software version 4.x.xx. Due to operable changes between this product and the Mobile Security Client application introduced in software release 5.0.00, the legacy Mobile Client is incompatible with MSC.

Administrator Console Settings
In the mobile mode (Mobile Only or Mobile option selection), the Web Filter will not filter segments on the network but will only filter end users on mobile workstations physically located outside of the organization. The end user's profile is based on the machine's MAC address instead of the workstation's IP address.

NOTE: If using the mobile mode, the following features are not available: Minimum Filtering Level, Time Profile, Override Account, Exception URL, LDAP Authentication, and the Warn filter setting (end users will be blocked instead of receiving a warning page). Additionally, if using the selective Instant Messaging feature, URLs will be blocked in the end user’s profile for the selected instant messaging options, but pattern files will be blocked at the global level for all instant messaging options.

Hardware Settings
A Web Filter physically set up to use the mobile mode can work in conjunction with another Web Filter set up in invisible, router, or firewall mode.
