Why each option
In a URL Filtering Profile, the 'allow' action permits access to a URL category without generating a log entry by default, distinguishing it from other actions.
The 'override' action, while allowing temporary access to a blocked URL, typically generates a log entry to record the override event.
The 'allow' action in a URL Filtering profile permits user access to a URL category and does not generate a log entry by default, distinguishing it from other actions that inherently log events.
The 'block' action explicitly denies access to a URL and always generates a log entry to document the blocked attempt.
The 'continue' action presents a warning page to the user before allowing access, and this interaction, including the user's decision, is typically logged.
