Question

BBC Iplayer

Hi,

 

I just wondered the best way to block BBC Iplayer and none of the other BBC content, looking at it i'm not sure if application control will work alone. As this is HTTPS content i think we would need to use SSL deep inspection in proxy mode?

 

Thanks

    Hi and welcome to the Forums. Yes, you're right. For this case you need app control with deep inspection. You should also distribute the Forti CA certificate to the clients to avoid ssl errors (if you use the default Forti SSL Inspection Cert).

    Thank you for the prompt response. I see there is 2 inspection types

     

    - SSL certificate inspection

    - full SSL inspection

     

    Can we not use SSL certificate inspection here or does it have to be full SSL inspection?

     

    Thanks

    To achieve what you need you're going to have to set up full ssl inspection. Be carefull and add the proper exeptions, since its illegal to perform full inspection on medical and financial data for example.
