Whitelist vimeo via URL override; while 'streaming media' category is blocked

mpgioia — Tue, 02 May 2017 05:27:26 GMT

Tried to do this via,

- *.vimeo.com
- *.vimeocdn.com

- player.vimeo.com/log/

- player.vimeo.com/crossdomain.xml

- av.vimeo.com/crossdomain.xml

- player.vimeo.com/play_redirect

But, still can't render https://vimeo.com or get to any content on vimeo. What am I missing ?

I created top rule to allow custom url category that included

vimeo.com

*.vimeo.com

vimeocdn.com

*.vimeocdn.com

And second rule that blocked all other streaming media.

Videos on Vimeo website played well.

But I also saw hits towards 31skyfiregce-vimeo.akamaized.net for example that was categorized as computer-and-internet-info.

And in addition to URL category there is also application vimeo that should be permitted also.

Yeh.. I reckon it was a 'flavour' of these above..

I just put in the simple string 'vimeo' and it worked.. 😕

Thanks all.
