    Posted Aug 04, 2016 05:15 AM

    Hi

     

    I wish to restrict access to a specific URL on the Aruba Controller for all users?

    hi,

     

    steps you'll need to do is: create a destination with that specific url, add a rule in global acl with that destination blocked.

     

    Creating the destination:

     

    Configuration > Advanced Services > Stateful firewall > destination

     

    create a destination with type name (I think)

     

    Rule should just be: any alias "destination-you-just-made" any drop

     

    Something like that ;)

    It actually is for pokemongo. What I am seeing if the respective URL's are pgorelease.nianticlabs.com

    yeah, you can block that url with an ACL. Just like in the instructions, create a destination with that url and add a rule blocking that destination. Simple as that. Blocking it for everyone should be easy by adding it to the global ACL (is applied to every user role).

    Thanks. Can you expand on the ACL.


    We also have virtual controllers, how would it done at that level?

    Can't really get to screenshots at the moment but can give you the cli code:

     

    netdestination pokemongo
    name pgorelease.nianticlabs.com

    !

     

    ip access-list session global-sacl

     any alias pokemongo any deny

    !

     

    That should be about it.

    Hello.

     

    Can you block all URLs that contain a cetain word, not a URLs?

     

    I want to block any URLs that contain the word "porno" (it is for a school). I have configured WEBCC, with a filter to pornography, but students write "porno" in google and it shows many links. Of course if they clic any link they cannot access the page, but if they go to the tab "images", they can see many pictures about porno.

     

    I have seen that the URL https://www.google.com/search?q=porno&rlz=1C1GCEU_esES821ES821&sxsrf=ACYBGNT_gbTnCW7uUE5pXTGpzskp2-xhjA:1580477176463&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj6xLal-K3nAhVXAWMBHckhBMAQ_AUoAXoECAsQAw&biw=1280&bih=881

    includes the word "porno", so I have thought that including a rule to block the name porno would work. Would it work? Is there any other way to block thouse images?

     

    Regards.
