Why each option
The 'Alert' action in a URL Filtering Security Profile is used to log the URL Filtering category to the URL Filtering log without blocking the access.
There is no direct 'Log' action for URL Filtering categories; logging is typically implied or a consequence of other actions like 'Alert' or 'Block'.
The 'Alert' action in a URL Filtering profile specifically generates an entry in the URL Filtering log, including the URL category, while still allowing the user to access the requested URL.
The 'Allow' action permits the traffic but does not, by itself, generate a specific URL filtering category log entry; logs would generally be session-based.
'Default' refers to inheriting a predefined action, which may or may not include explicitly logging the category, and is not the specific action to ensure logging of the category.
