Support for CName in Orbi to enforce strict mode for YouTube

So, at a network level with the Orbi, there is no way to do this:

 

Configure Domain Name System (DNS) on your network to add a Canonical Name (CNAME) for the following hostnames: 

For Strict Restricted YouTube access, add restrict.youtube.com as a CNAME for these domains. For Moderate Restricted YouTube access, add restrictmoderate.youtube.com as a CNAME for these domains.

Please do not give a CNAME to other YouTube hostnames, including these:

  • youtube.com
  • s.ytimg.com
  • youtu.be
  • googleapis.com

Changing the CNAME for these hostnames affects YouTube's ability to function correctly.

 

 

Please consider this an official feature request for the Orbi.
