Hello,

I am a new RB2011 router user and I learn it now. I would like to do a Layour7 protocol. This protocol is going but I have problem. If I filtered a long name of sites for example "11111.aaaaa.bbbbb.akamaitechnologias.com" or "11111.aaaaa.bbbbb.akamaitechnologias.net" and I give regexp -> "akamaitechnologies" my lyout7 function do not work well and not enable to load that sites.

Please help me what is the correct regexp rule. I tryed more for exapmles:
regexp = "^(.*)(akamaitechnologies)(.&)$"
or
regexp = "^(.*akamaitechnologies*)$"
or
regexp = "^(akamaitechnologies)"
or
regexp = "akamaitechnologies"

So I need advise and I get it with pleasure.

(Sorry for my English...)

Thanx.....

Suby

This regexp
regexp="(^|.\\.)akamaitechnologies\\.."
filter every akamaitechnologies.*** and ***.akamaitechnologies.*** domain

This regexp
regexp="(^|.\\.)akamaitechnologies\\.."
filter every akamaitechnologies.*** and ***.akamaitechnologies.*** domain

Hello,

First, thank you for your kindness to answer to my question.
Unfortunatelly the regexp formula does not work. I do not know why and after I put it in the regexp the browser openes everything. So I would like to ask that I have to write to the regexp exactly as you wrote -> "(^|.\\.)akamaitechnologies\\.."

Second please help me that how to write to the regexp the "akamaihd" key world (the domain is "akamaihd.net"?

Best regards,

add the following lines and then open a new incognito tab and try to reach http://www.akamai.com/ (it should fail and you will see packets increasing for that rule on /ip firewall filter print stats )

/ip firewall layer7-protocol
add name=l7_akamai regexp="(^|.\\.)akamai\\.."

/ip firewall filter
add action=drop chain=forward disabled=yes layer7-protocol=l7_akamai log=yes

In this case you're blocking every ***.akamai.* domain.
Eg:
www.akamai.net
test.mt.akamai.net
aabbcc.11111.snssns.akamai.org

add the following lines and then open a new incognito tab and try to reach http://www.akamai.com/ (it should fail and you will see packets increasing for that rule on /ip firewall filter print stats )

Dear Plutone,

I appreciate your effort and help to me. Thank you...
But when I read your latest advise I perhaps realize what is the problem. You wrote "In this case you're blocking every ***.akamai.* domain. " but what I want that is opposite.

So I would like to block everyting except akamaihd and akamaitechnilogies domains.

Please write to me how can I give the rule in this case?

Best regards,

Suby

Hello,
First, thank you for your help (Plutone...)

I am using your layer7 rules and it is going well. But I have a little problem. I can not resolve 94.21.255.209 ip address with nslookup in console. I do not understand why.

If you had some ideas please write them down to help me.

Best regards,

Suby
