Is It Possible to Block Specific Facebook Pages or YouTube Channels Using FortiGate ,?

Is it technically possible to block specific Facebook pages (for example, facebook.com/examplepage) or specific YouTube channels (for example, youtube.com/channel/UC123456789) using FortiGate, while still allowing general access to Facebook and YouTube, in an environment where users access the internet via both computers and mobile devices?

Hi amen_abdi,


You can Block Facebook while allowing Messenger
https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-Block-Facebook-while-allowing-Messenger/ta...


To restrict YouTube channels using video filtering, please refer to the document below:
https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-How-to-restrict-YouTube-channels-using-vid...


Note that for versions higher than 7.4.x, the configuration is slightly different, because the 'config videofilter youtube-channel-filter' feature line is not available. Only available 'Keyword", 'profile' and 'youtube-key'


If you have found a solution, please like and accept it to make it easily accessible to others.


Regards,
Aman
