google play application control Sophos XG firewall

Hello George hanna,

Yes, that is right that as of now play.google.com is not available in application category. 

But you can create a custom category under the web > categories > with classification > unproductive 
And you can add the domain/keyword for the google play store. 

And use that category in the web policy with the action > block for http and https. 

thanks Vivek Jagad 

this solution work only for browsing by browser

but the play store app still work and downloading apps

is there another solution ?

So, basically you have an allow all rule which will bypass the selective policies in other rules.

I already disable the allow all rule see attached

Does your rule use application control as well. You will need to block it in application policies. Do you have ips enabled in the rule? 

ian

yes my rule use application control , but the play store app doesn't exist in the application control

i didn't enable the ips  

In that case, have you applied such web policy ?
Where you using DPI or web proxy ?
and enabled the following options ?

works fine 

thanks Vivek Jagad  for your great  help and support
