Re: Block Google's Data Saver(Web Acceleration) Protocol

Creating a custom category for QUIC results in blocking other google services even when the data extension is not enabled. this includes simple google searches. Blocking UDP ports 80 and 443 seems to work as expected on an ERPOE, but I see no change on an ERlite. Is it possible that setting a bridge on eth1 and eth2 could affect that? that is really the only differnce I can think of on the test units in my lab. i will try removing the bridge configuration and run some more tests. My guess is that the Data Saver extension points to specific Google servers. Early on Google was testing SPDY protocol to compress data from their servers and it wasn't broadly used except for the web acceleration feature. I may try some extended wireshark captures to see if there is a trend.
