SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING, CONTROLLING AND CONFIGURING AN INTELLIGENT PARENTAL CONTROL FILTER

摘要

A system and a method for intelligently learning a list of allowed IP content at one or more internet connected devices by implementing an intelligent parental control means is provided. The means includes a router and a filter. The router monitors and records web based operations done at the internet connected devices during a learning mode to create a list of allowed IP content at the internet connected devices. The filter implements the list and accordingly allows and blocks the content. Further, a remote device communicating with the router via a central server remotely controls and configures the router and the filter. The remote device permits the router to approve or disapprove a blocked IP content, when the blocked content is accessed at the internet connected devices.

1. A method for implementing an internet filter in a network comprising the steps of:
routing network traffic through a filter configurable to operate in a learning-ON mode and a regular mode; receiving by the filter a request from a user device in the network to access one or more internet address or port address during the learning-On mode and analyzing IP traffic associated with said one or more internet address or port address; recording said one or more internet address or port address to build a white-list of allowed internet addresses or port addresses by analyzing the traffic associated with said one or more internet address or port address.
