Transparent URL Filtering
developing (live in <90 days)
Ken Carnesi
Allow URL filtering, where only a specific URL or directory (IE: www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/) would be filtered, but not the entire domain.
Note: HTTPS support would require installing our Root CA SSL Certificate - https://trello.com/c/GVov9v6V/34-installable-ca-for-ssl-blocked-sites

Hello all,
We are a K-12 school. We need to allow "google.com", but we would like to filter nasty websites like "sites.google.com/site/classroom6x"
Crossing fingers... 8-)

Fabian: Good news, that's actually one of the specific use cases we have working today with the beta. Would love to get you involved in the beta program and get your feedback on use cases. I'll follow-up over email.
Fabian

URL Support in White list (and black)
Joseph
We have situations where our UTM will need to down load IP or Domain list.
If we have the category blocked, the UTM can not download the needed file.
Allowing the a URL will allow us to keep DNSFilter top level blocks for that domain while the UTM is able get the request it needs.
Example:
Block this page
1http://somepage.com
but allow
11http://somepage.com/IPlist.txt
or
11http://list.somepage.com
Allowing a direct url in the white list would help.
Edit: added characters to from of URL as the sample goes to a page.

It's impossible to filter google, without having url filtering. This is because the recaptcha, which is google.com/recaptcha, needs to be allowed, for recaptcha to work while google is blocked.

As we continue to gather feedback and use cases for URL Filtering - we'd appreciate everyone taking a few minutes to complete this short survey. We're interested in hearing which features would be most helpful to you and your users. https://forms.gle/LH2QYyuXPTZc5RU86

Thank you everyone for voting, we're gathering use cases for URL Filtering and would love to talk with some of our voters to understand all the use cases. We'd love to hear from you and please use this link if you'd like to schedule time with us - https://calendly.com/d/x2q-3tp-mhy/product-management-feedback.

DNSfilter would have to become PROXYfilter to support these features. Integration of a lightweight proxy into the roaming client to do SSL inspection of designated sites would very significantly extend the filtering capabilities. I'd like to see it at some point.
