Hi, I have USG60 (V4.60)  with fast-forwarding on.  Only security policy service enabled. 

I am trying to block youtube via FQDN - followed the instructions from https://support.zyxel.eu/hc/en-us/articles/360001390374-How-to-block-websites-via-FQDN-entry-

Shows no error but does not block the traffic; doesn't say anything in the log. Is it because of fast-forwarding? Any advice?

thanks

    I'm not sure if fast-forwarding affects FQDN but to block youtube you must use DNS and not DNS over TLS.

    To block the Videos for youtube its:

    *googlevideo.com

    Hi @AVK

    The fast forwarding will bypass UTM profile setting but keep security policy action that means youtube website will still be blocked. Maybe you can clean your cache of device and try it again.

    Or simply you can use "App Patrol" to block youtube on the destination computer.
