Essential Details

The DrawBridge is a web content filter running on the ClearOS Linux distribution.

In addition to the content filter service, the ClearOS operating system can also perform the following functions:

  • DHCP (enabled by default)
  • DNS (enabled by default)
  • Firewall + Intrusion Prevention (when Gateway)
  • Port Forwarding (when Gateway)
  • OpenVPN Server

The DrawBridge has two web interfaces that load in a browser:

  • https://draw.bridge - content filter and QoS settings
  • https://draw.bridge:81 - ClearOS (operating system) network configuration settings

Note: The https://draw.bridge web address is only valid inside your network (it is not reachable from other computers on the internet). If this does not work, you can also use the IP address of the unit (however you should configure your DNS properly so that it does work).
