  • 1.  block Facebook traffic

    Posted Jun 26, 2020 07:27 AM

    Hi all

     

    we recently upgrade an aruba 70xx controller to version 8.6.0.4

     

    we tried to block facebook with a policy that contains:

     

    user any app facebook deny

      user any app youtube permit

     

    can you please help, because traffic from facebook is not being blocked.

    We already applied the policy to a role and is not working.

     

    What can I test to see what is happening with the traffic..

     

    regards

    Did you enable AppRF and do you have a PEF license?

    No worries, you can check a bit more with the following:

     

    show firewall-visibility status
show firewall

    Ah yes, if you check 'show firewall' and look for the line below, it will tell you if configured etc.

     

    DPI Classification                                Enabled [Cfg: enabled, PEF license: installed]
