Configures how often to download the URL category updates to the Network Security appliance.
A third-party URL categorization database allows you to control which websites and website categories can be whitelisted based on SSL interception. This database classifies a variety of URLs into different categories, such as careers, arts, sports, and shopping. Each entry in the URL set can include the URL and metadata (for example, URL categories and category groups).
By default, the latest URL categories are automatically downloaded to the appliance every 12 hours.
For details about how to configure the Network Security appliance to check for new URL categories, see the "Configuring SSL Interception" chapter of the Network Security User Guide.
