Palo Alto URL Filtering and URL Categories

In this video we'll show you how to configure the URL Filtering feature of the Palo Alto Firewall. URL filtering technology protects users from web-based threats by providing granular control over user access and interaction with content on the Internet.

We're going to block access to the URL category social-networking, but make an exception for some URLs in this group. Furthermore, we're going to block access to paypal.com and its subdomains.

In the end of the video we'll test our configuration and we'll show you how to interpret the firewall logs.
