Hi, I have two AP model EAP225, I can't find the option to block websites like facebook.com for example, I made a Mesh setup and can't find anything on OMADA app to block, I restore to factory settings, I enter to the AP IP to configure and check if I can block but nothing... does someone knows how to block websites? Thank you :)

Hi  @Alexis0A 

 

You need an Omada controller to configure it.

 

How to Install and Set Up Omada Software Controller?

 

And refer to the following guide to configure URL filtering:

How to configure URL Filtering via Omada Controller

Wish you a happy life and smooth network usage!

Hi,

 

As far as I know this can be done with DPI functionality only. The DPI is available on Omada Gateways supported by Omada Controller:

Just an EAP is not enough for that to make it work. But maybe someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

 

Cheers

Hi  @RaRu 

 

Yes, we can configure DPI to block Facebook APP.

 

And we can also configure URL filtering to block facebook.com.

Wish you a happy life and smooth network usage!

Thank you so much! I got a Windows PC and set it up. Now I can block sites, and I have another question that maybe you can help me with. I need to block the Facebook app on phones that are connected to my network. Is this possible too? I’m not sure if it can be done with IP filtering or something else.
 

Again, thank you so much!

 Hi @Alexis0A 

To block an APP, you need to add an SDN gateway that supports the DPI function, such as ER707-M2

 

 

And configure DPI to block an APP, below is the configuration guide:

Wish you a happy life and smooth network usage!
