FAQ

Welcome to the FAQ section. We encourage you to use this knowledgebase to find out more about WebHawk and how to use it. If you are having trouble finding the information you are looking, for or have questions that are not answered, here please contact our WebHawk support team.

Q: Why is WebHawk so inexpensive?

Websense and SurfControl have 99% gross profit margins as reported in their 10K filings. Our business model does not require that we operate on 99% gross margins. Webhawk is a great solution at a fair price.  Form 10-K SurfControl   Form 10-K WebSense    

Q: How do I configure my Cisco switch to use Port SPAN? 

By default, Web Hawk will try to transmit traffic (to block web requests & transmit Name Resolution requests)
 on the same port it is monitoring traffic on. When configuring a Cisco switch to perform Port SPAN on some
 firmware versions, the SPAN Destination Port the switch is receiving traffic on will not allow packets to be
 transmitted into that interface (in other words it is "unidirectional").

  Q: Do I need to buy an appliance to run WebHawk?

No. You can install WebHawk on your own hardware as long as there are no other major network services running. If you do purchase a Packet Hawk server appliance,  we will pre-configure your WebHawk software for you.
