Give students a Bypass Code during class

This article is for Teachers.

Info

If you can't access this feature, contact your school's IT Support for permission.

You can give students a Bypass Code to allow uninterrupted learning or access to any website not Locked Blocked by your school. While only one code can be generated at a time, multiple students can use it. Students can enter the code on the Block page or at my.linewize.net.

Important

  • Use Bypass Codes with caution. They allow any user with the code to access any site or application not Locked Blocked by your school for up to three hours.
  • Bypass Codes do not work with Focus. Activating Focus will override any temporarily allowed access granted by a Bypass Code and you can’t generate a Bypass Code while Focus is active.
  • If your school’s IT Support has turned on Block Only Rule Mode, you can’t make Bypass Codes.

Create a Bypass Code

  1. In the Classroom, select Class Tools > Bypass Code. The Bypass Code dialog will appear.
  2. Using the Bypass Duration dropdown, select the duration of the Bypass Code.
  3. Note down the Bypass code and select Start.
  4. The Bypass Code button will appear on your toolbar, indicating the code is now active.

Info

If a student uses a Bypass Code and can't access the desired website, the site has been Locked Blocked. Your school’s IT support team can only unblock these.
