Raising this as a feature request for L7 Protocol support within the IPv6 package.
This feature is unique to Mikrotik and allows amazing flexibility for SOHO users of the hardware who just want to limit YouTube, Facebook, etc on the network.
My current use case of this is a L7 regex to mark connections and associated packets, then using those marked packets within a Queue.
Would love to hear your thoughts
Can you share regrex you use for facebook or youtube ?
Regex is not a good method anymore to block services like facebook or youtube due to the https protocol used.
You could use the TLS host match to do this, which does the same thing that people that still try to use regexp today but in a more reliable way.
However you should know that the protocol change that will make this impossible as well is currently being discussed and deployed, so it will be only for a limited time that this method can be used.
The TLS host match is also available in IPv6 so for now you should use that instead.
(of course not directly, but via a connection mark. as usual for this kind of matching)
