How to block Facebook, Youtube in WiNG AP-7522?

[Long_Tran]

Hi all,
My company uses AP-7522 for wireless system. I want block Facebook, Youtube and streaming of video and music in AP-7522.
I used Application Policy to block them. But i can only block Facebook in browser of laptop or Desktop; Facebook in Mobile Phone is not blocked. And Youtube is not blocked in both Laptop, mobile phone. And i don't know how to block streaming of video and music.

Help me please! Thank you very much.

Hi,

That’s a solid explanation and pretty much aligns with what I’ve seen in similar setups. Relying only on Application Policy can be limiting, especially with HTTPS and how modern apps distribute traffic across multiple domains.

Using firewall rules to block key domains and applying them at the WLAN or role level is definitely a more reliable approach. For stricter control, combining that with an external firewall or filtering gateway makes a big difference, especially when dealing with mobile apps and encrypted traffic.

I’ve also come across similar discussions while researching app behavior and traffic handling on platforms like manoknapulaapp, where it’s clear how diverse backend connections can bypass simple filtering methods.

Overall, your approach makes sense for achieving more consistent blocking across devices.

can you share the app policy configuration. again, when you block a application or a category it gets instantly blocked. the problem is client cache, and we can't do anything about.
try block facebook and then try to load some new data on clients, 100% you won't be able to load furthur more.

Why is it not possible to block a user, that is already login? If I create a Application Policy and block HTTPS CN facebook for example, I'll assume, that you block all traffic.

But, very agree with Alona's commends:

• On the mobile phone - if user is already logged into Facebook - hard to prevent, but new connection should be denied.
