FQDNFully Qualified Domain Name

 The FQDN consists of two parts: the hostname and the domain name. For

example, an FQDN may be

www.planet.com.tw

. The hostname is www, and the

domain name is planet.com.tw.

 To regulate the access to the specified web site, the IT administrator only needs

to configure an FQDN setting.

Note:

1. FQDN settings helps IT administrator to block all the IP addresses that are mapped to the site.

Normally, the site has more than one IP address, thus, block an IP address does not block the

site reliably. For example, facebook has the IP addresses like 69.171.228.14、69.171.224.39、

69.171.229.14, etc. To block facebook, the IT administrator may block the site by its FQDN

instead of its IP addresses.

2. Instead of type the whole address such as

http://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=

105520583884516, you merely need to type “hostname + domain name”such as

www.facebook.com

. to complete the FQDN settings.

3. FQDN settings may regulate the protocol like HTTP, HTTPS and FTP, while the

black-/whitelist may regulate HTTP protocol only. To configure the FQDN setting, you may

add an FQDN under Policy Object > Address > WAN first, and then apply it to the policy.

4. Under Policy Object > Address > WAN Group, the newly added *CHINA_TELECOM and

*CNC selections represent two major ISPs in China. During an outward session, in order to

take advantage of policy-based routing (PBR), the device will designate the most appropriate

route based upon the destination address.
