I need to have access to web content restricted to a whitelist of entries. It is requested that any link from a whitelisted page also work even if it itself is not whitelisted.
A custom linux proxy was programmed for this but I’m trying to duplicate functionality on MT if possible or find another solution with similar results.
Thanks,
Scott
Where is the problem with MikroTik proxy, which feature do you need ? What exactly you are not able to implement ?
Come on serjegs, did you even read what I typed? I have exactly the requirements and have not used MT proxy before si I’m just asking how/if I can do this in MT:
Allow access to only whitelisted entries – and non-whitelisted links on a whitelisted site they are able to get to…
For example: Whitelist contains cnn.com and mikrotik.com
Those are the only two sites that can be accessed now because they are the only ones specifically listed (whitelisted). Now someone goes to MT website and there is a link to a document on routerboard.com - I am allowed to click this lnk and access this page because it was a link on the whitelisted page. This is the advanced feature that had to be custom programmed into the linux proxy currently in use. It parses a whitelisted page and dynamically adds the href links into a dynamic list (kind the way address lists work in firewall) so people can have access to the info they may need referenced from whitelisted site.
Thats exactly what I need - any luck I’ll be able to do this with MT? Again, never used web proxy so this may be an option on the first setup screen I’m not sure…

Thank you for the explanation. There might be a lot of features, which can be called whitelist, that’s why I have asked to precise.
Currently asked feature is not available and from the MikroTik point of view, when you open www.routerboard.com from the www.mikrotik.com, it is the same when you open www.routerboard.com on the new web-browser page.
