When a user accesses a website that has been allowed temporary access, in this example, "youtube.com", they’ll get the following Warning:

"Warning! This website is blocked. The administrator of this network has restricted access to sites categorized as Youtube. Clicking proceed will allow temporary access to this site, but you should only do this if necessary.""

After they click Proceed, YouTube will load.

However, if the user closes their browser, they won't see the Warning page again; this is because the Sophos Firewall cached this "access" for 30 Minutes. If the Sophos Firewall weren’t to cache this access for the user, they would get the WARNING page every time they click a link within that website. 

After this, 30 minutes run out, and if the user tries to access it, they’ll be presented with the WARNING page again.
