Solved: Regular Expression Question for blocking and redirecting

l8nite4me2 · ‎03-05-2010

I am currently using regular expression to block certain websites. I have two questions about this. My regular expressions are working fine, what I would like to know is if I can have more than value defined in each expression.

Example

currently I have blockedsite1 ---> facebook\.com, blockedsite2 -->myspace\.com

Is there a way to combine them into one such as (I know the syntax is not correct) blockedsite1 --> facebook\.com;myspace\.com

Second question. Is there a way in the regex to define a redirect.

Example: A user hits facebook.com. Can the regex or another rule based off the regex redirect the user to our corporate website.

Thanks in Advance

I am not sure if either of them is possible.

Pls. refer this link: http://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-1268

Alternation

Matches either expression it separates. For example, dog|cat matches dog or cat.

See if you can use the above metacharacter and see if you can do what you are looking to do.
