Apple IOS Update

Quick question,

Is it possible to Block Apple IOS updates with the Palo Alto 3050. I have been working on this for a day now and haven't been able to completely block Apple IOS 7 updates.

Hi,

Did you try adding the App "Apple-update" and action as block.

Yes i created a policy that blocks apple updates as well as itunes-base.

Hi,

The itune-base should have blocked it and you should have seen the session in a discarded state. Can you create a policy with just the itune-base application and set it to deny and test the traffic.

Thanks,
