Blocking Youtube

Hi All,

 I have a requirement to block You Tube, I have tried various options, but You Tube is still working. 

I have explicitly blocked YouTube in Base Policy - Web Control. Also have blocked Streaming Media in Categories likely to cause excessive  bandwidth usage.

But You Tube is still working in all browsers. 

Thanks in advance!

  • Hi 

    Have you added youtube under Global Settings > Website Management with the tag that you created? A screenshot of the policy applied would also be helpful. Also, ensure there is no overlap with users that belong to multiple policies in the web control. Check out this video which might be helpful to set up the configuration. You can also check on the endpoint if the policy is being applied. (Endpoint self-help tool> Policy)

  • I too face this problem. 
    Adding a Site in Global Website Mgmt + Base Policy Category block. 
    The URL Still loads at times but after a while gets blocked again. I cant report this to the Support as its random issue on random devices,
    Till i report and request an engineer to check the issue is auto resolved Disappointed
