Does anyone have any ideas on how to permit access to Google Maps but block access to all other Google services? I have tried using a rule matching the Google-Maps application however it requires google-base which allows many other Google services. I have also tried using custom URLs for maps.google.com and www.google.com/maps; however, Google maps seems to require access to resources at www.google.com/.
The customer is currently using a Squid proxy with detailed regex expressions to accomplish this. Below are some examples. They would like to remove the proxy and use the firewall only.
acl ALLOWED_URL url_regex -i ^https?://www.google.com/favicon.ico$
acl ALLOWED_URL url_regex -i ^https?://www.google.com/images/branding/product/ico
acl ALLOWED_URL url_regex -i ^https?://www\.google\.com/(maps|xjs)
acl ALLOWED_URL url_regex -i ^https?://www\.google\.com/s(earch)?\?tbm=map
acl ALLOWED_URL url_regex -i ^https?://www\.google\.com/gen_204\?oq=
