What's the simplest way to block a Top-Level-Domain (*.ru/* for example )in web protection?

What is the simplest way to block all users from visiting a TLD? This seems like a basic functionality but I haven't found a good answer.

  • I know this works in UTM hoping XG

     

    https?://[A-Za-z0-9.-]*\.ru/

    or

    http?://[A-Za-z0-9.-]*\.ru/

     

    You can also use country blocking, you may be aware but figure I would mention it.

  • Hello

    You can use those regex for allowing on XG at Web > Exceptions but for blocking a top level domain you can use firewall rules

    Action Drop

    From Lan to Wan

    From Any to FQDN Host - *.ru

    Log if you want.

    There are some other options like creating url groups, or web categories -Need to write all domains and subdomains in this- but i always prefer Firewall Rule for this.
