Hi,

I have seen tons of threads on the above for Netgear routers but the Umbrella service doesn't seem to have this functionality.

It would be incredibly powerful to be able to block web browsing between certain hours of the day, perhaps in a whitelist only mode then after a specific time allow full access.

Thanks
Rob

  A Netgear router is local hardware and firmware at your location which is able to perform time based actions, whereas Umbrella is merely a service in the could.  The locally running software required for Umbrella Insights and Umbrella Platform may support scheduling already, not entirely sure.

  Hi, thanks for the reply. With the Umbrella client having so much granular control I would be surprised if there wasn't a way of applying policies by time. I have created a new policy to be whitelist only browsing, I just need a way of locking it down so it applies this policy between the hours I specify...

  Thanks
  Rob
