Sophos XG: How to control Linux servers to only access (centos) update mirrors ?

Hi guys,

We would like to block any outgoing internet traffic from our linux farm except the linux/centos update mirrors.

What kind of FW rule should be a good solution for this ? We tried one using FQDN hosts, but the linux servers seems to go to many different domains.

 

Best regards,

Twan

  • Hi Twan,

    Look for a particular set of IP addresses or URLs associated with the Linux/CentOS updates and create an exception policy. You can then have a Firewall rule and add IP addresses of the Linux servers in the Source Hosts section and set the default action to drop. 

    Thanks,
