Policy based on specific URLs

Yes. Select ' FQDN' from the drop down box. (Fully Qualified Domain Name)

I tried entering FQDN in different formats, still traffic is not going through that policy. I tried http://www.google.com www.google.com google.com

I am having the same problem. I would like to add a policy based on a certain address, however none of the traffic ever goes thru that Policy with the FQDN, I have moved it to the top of the policy list, I' ve tested it in many different ways, yet the traffic does not flow thru that policy like I have it set. I am also wondering what I am doing wrong. Thanks Robert

Hello I found the root of my problem. My fortigate was pointing to my ISP DNS where my machine was pointing to domain controller DNS. Therefore both were resolving FQDN to different IPs. Change your fortigate or machine DNS and make them identical. that should solve your issue.

FGT # diag test application dnsproxy ? 1. Clear dns cache 2. Show stats 3. Dump DNS setting 4. Reload FQDN 5. Requery FQDN 6. Dump FQDN compare it with you nslookup result from your machine.

Hi...thanks for the help! I checked my DNS settings on my Fortigate and they are the same as on my local machine, however, I' m still having trouble with the FQDN What I' m trying to do is Traffic Shape any traffic going to googlevideo.com - I' ve used the application sensors for YouTube, however, seems like we have lots of traffic every day to googlevideo that needs to be put into a lower priority, so I create a new policy and put in the destination as googlevideo.com (which I created as a FQDN in addresses) and put my traffic shaper on it, it still does not work....any hints and tips are much appreciated. THANK YOU Robert

Ok! Great. Flushing out the cache did do the trick. My next quick question is how do I get it to see the traffic going to a subdomain of googlevideo.com? I know writing it like this: *.googlevideo.com isn' t working for me. Is there a way to even do that? To get all traffic going to " anything" .googlevideo.com to go thru that policy. Thanks so much for the help so far! Robert
