[Andrei_OLAGO]

I am using one Fortigate 1000C at work to control communications and applications. I want to decrease bandwidth consumption of some application which are in the category " OTHERS" . These application are consuming large bandwidth in our network so I want to find a way to block them. Thanks for your support.

If you are using FOS 5.0,there are two implicit application filter rules on the bottom of the app ctrl sensor,pls set the action for these two rules to block which will block all other known and unknown apps.

Hi Stephen and thank you for your support. I have blocked all other known and unknown applications but this had not fixed my problem. I am going to explain. I am tracking Macbook Pro users, when they are connected to internet with their laptop, Firewall is not able to block downloading through this Macbook Pro. Also torrent are not blocking however I have configured the firewall to block these applications. Its working fine with PC but not with Macbook Pro. Do you have any idea to block all downloads from Macbook Pro ? Thanks again for your support !
