Freegate Blocking

[lynhlee]

Hi every body,

I have FG.300D with fortios 5.x. 

I'm blocking the internet during business hours (facebook, youtube, news...). However, some users use Freegate software to bypass FG.  I tried blocking it with an Application control and deny tcp. 8580 but did not success.

Please help me. Can somebody give me solution to this problem?

Thanks & Best regards,

Hello,

If you are using FortiOS 5.2 and below, you need to enable deep-inspection to block Freegate. If you are using FortiOS 5.4 and above, deep-inspection is not needed.

Have same problem here.

First attempt is blocked sometimes and when re-launch the program, it connects to their servers...

Is there any method to block this FreeGate?
