What do you mean by restrict? Do you want to keep them from accessing an
HTTP servers outside the firewall? The CERN server allows you to restrict
outgoing traffic by protocol, protocol methods (GET, PUT, POST, HEAD,
DELETE for HTTP), IP, host, or domain, plus specific sites can be blocked
out, for example if you didn't want anyone visiting the Microsoft site :)
This is all done with rules and supports some wildcarding.
