We are increasingly seeing the need for a URL rewrite feature - we had hoped to use it for one of the ways to force Google SafeSearch (vs. the existing option of blocking searches using an app signature) We now would like to use YouTube for Schools, which depends on URL modification: http://support.google.com/youtube/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1686318 A) Add new HTTP header rule Modify your hardware filter or proxy server settings so that all outgoing traffic to youtube.com contains the following custom HTTP header. The ID to use in the HTTP header configuration, written below, is an example of a unique ID for your school’s network only. If your school is blocked at the district level, this HTTP header is then unique to the district network. Example: X-YouTube-Edu-Filter:ABCD1234567890abcdefField Name: X-YouTube-Edu-Filter Description: When YouTube sees this header and an accompanying valid school ID in the incoming traffic, YouTube will serve a limited EDU-only site to all computers behind the school hardware filter. Field Value Format: alphanumeric [a-z][A-Z][0-9] Field Value Length: up to 44 characters B) Create URL parameter rewrite rule If your hardware filter not support HTTP header modification, please rewrite all outgoing URLs to youtube.com by appending the parameter “edufilter” at the end. Exclude the &edufilter parameter from these file types: .css, .gif, .png, .js, .xml Example: http://youtube.com/?edufilter=ABCD1234567890abcdef http://youtube.com/watch?v=gM95HHI4gLk&edufilter=ABCD1234567890afbcdef Is/will there be any way to do this in PanOS 4.1? We are upgrading over the holiday break.
