Hello.

 

I am using FortiGate 60E with "Firmware v6.0.5 build0268 (GA)". I want users to access internet only by using Google Chrome browser. Is it possible to set the firewall settings for this purpose? If it is, I would be glad to hear how can i do this?

 

Regards.

    You better do this via Active directory rules

    I find this to be quite inconvenient, but there will be solutions, I do not think to use this method just to Chrome

    Write a user-agent IPS signature and filter by that means. Note any web-browsers with a user-agent switcher can easily switch the UA.

     

    e.g ( a few examples of such and you need TLS decryption for HTTPS websites )

    Why do you need to allow only chrome? Most of the time, website controls or enforces UA selection.

     

    You better do this via Active directory rules

     

    NOTE: MS-AD group-policy is not an option for enforcement due to many non-WindowsOS types.
