Allow users to Office 365 using Application control and URL filter

[dickuk]

Hi All

I am looking to allow internal users to Office 365 for their cloud email and read here (http://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/28547822/Adding-Office365-IPs-and-URls-to-Fortigate-200b.h...) that it should be done using a combination of application control and URL filter.

I've created an application profile with all categories as block and added the Microsoft Office 365 applications as overrides with Monitor as the action. However I still need access to other URLs such as https://outlook.office365.com for the web front end. This URL doesnt get picked up by the application profile, so I have added office365.com to a URL filter profile.

I then added both of these to my outgoing http/https rule but the office365.com URL doesnt work. I'm guessing that the application control is overriding the URL filter.

Has anyone had any luck using Office365 with Fortinet and could guide me in the right direction?

Thanks

Richard
