Hi

I have set to block all file transfers through the sensei application control setting.
However i am still able to download torrents at full speed.

Is there anymore that i need to do to stop p2p from running ?

Thanks

Hi,

Which one do you use? Maybe it needs an AppDB update.

Hi

i have disabled the entire File Transfer category in application control.

Engine Version:   1.7   Last Update: 02/01/2021 20:05   Check Updates View Release Notes
App & Rules DB Version:   1.7.21012112   Last Update: 02/01/2021 20:05   Check Updates Reload View Versions

I have the latest app rules db.

Deployment Mode running Routed Mode (L3 Mode, Reporting + Blocking) with native netmap driver


Hi,

I mean which file transfer application or web site?

Transmission client downloading ubuntu ISO

I can confirm the problem for example with this torrent https://releases.ubuntu.com/20.04/ubuntu-20.04.2.0-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent and Transmission.
It would be great if the entire torrent traffic would be blocked with these rules. I have also tested Suricata, there it works as expected.

Hi all,

Thanks for the suggestions. AppDB is been growing and be sure that these samples will be added soon.
