hello there,
we use FG-60F with firmware 7.2.4

 

I searched internet how to apply policy to block activity download/upload for certain file size.

But I can't find menu/settings as told by them.

 

anyone can help please?

I've tried to check DLP setting, file filter, also can't be found.

 

thank you

Thank you for your response.
I completely understand your concern in terms of ease of access from GUI.
However, DLP can only be configured via CLI.

Hello Kssupport,

As I understand, you want to restrict the file upload/download based on the size.

The only option to achieve your requirement is by using the feature called DLP.

Please copy and paste the below link in web browser and follow the steps

    thank you.

    just curious before begin.

    will it shown up on GUI? the advantage GUI is I can manage and review easily in the future. Sometimes I need to flashback what have been changed / setting.

     

     

    thanks in advance

    Hi @kssupport 

     

    Unfortunately this is a CLI only command. It will not show in GUI.

    hi. noted on this. so I can say previous feature (configure file limit on DLP via GUI) has been removed.

    am I correct?

     

    by the way, DLP setting (pattern, sensor, dictionary) created via CLI.

    when I want to add new DLP use GUI, can I see those setting via GUI?

     

    sorry to ask before, since in my environment need near zero error.

     

    thank you.
