Need Help with URL filtering
I require help with URL filtering
Users are on OC300 and of course have access to omada cloud controller
URL filtering works fine and dandy for all other webs/URLs aside from Whatsapp, I've listed every whatsapp URL under the sun to no avail

Thanks for posting here.
URL filtering can only block specific URLs and cannot filter Applications.
You may configure DPI to block certain APPs. Below is the configuration guide:

Hi vincent, I'm sorry that I wasn't clear with my problems, I should have specified that the user wants to block internet acess EXCEPT for whatsapp.
For example, we have succesfully implemented their policies of internet blocking and allowed telegram as well as the user's own sites (as requested)
But when trying to allow whatsapp, I ran into some issues

You could potentially do this with a gateway LAN>WAN ACL, but its not only the URLs you need to know, its every single possible whatsapp sevice IP, port, protocol.....
