Hello All,

We have made a new Policy "Restricted" and blocked "Bandwidth Consuming" and its sub-categories in Web filter. But there are websites which are in its sub-categories aren't blocking. Users can easily access those blocked websites. We have put "blocked rules" policy in the end of ipv4-policy. I have attached screenshots as well. I even blocked it from DNS filter but its still not blocking it.

Hi,

Is the policy in flow or proxy mode ? Also, do you have any SSL Inspection enabled on the rule in question?

The policy is in flow mode and yes SSL inspection is enabled on the rule.

Try changing that to proxy mode and see if the web filter does it's work.
