Web Filter URL based routing.

We will soon have a 2nd line out of the Office. We are in a country with internet restrictions, so for these restricted sites like google, youtube, amazon etc. I want to route them over the 2nd line out which will connect to a sister office - in a country with no internet restrictions. I know policy / static based routing is all IP / Mask based.

 

Looking around I found this link, where from a quick read it appears to be blocking the sites in one interface therefor sending them out the 2nd interface. Is this the only way to achieve something like this on the Fortios? Versions 5.4 / 5.6.

 

Is there another way or a better way? Surely this must be done by others who are smarter than me!

 Don't know how useful setting up FQDN routing would be to you, considering the use of local content servers these days, but it may be something to look into.
