Hello,

 

You can try with webfilter static URL.

 

Simply create a Static URL entry to block "www.linkedin.com/jobs/

Note: You must also apply SSL deep-inspection to the policy, otherwise FGT cannot identify the full URL ("/jobs/"   part) because it is encrypted. It will not work with certificate-inspection  only.

Hello,

Thank you for your response.

Is there any other way to block ("www.linkedin.com/jobs/") such URLs? Just for knowledge!!

Hello Omkar,

 

You can also follow this Technical Tip to block the LinkedIn Jobs which has some more URLs so that you can completely block.
