Anyone know simple ways to bypass Fortiguard? My college just got it this month and i can't view Jow Forums or play CA
I want to learn how to host a undetected VPN at home (with nubcake instructions)
or know any free/cheap vpns that aren't detected yet
Simple? That is for noobs. Go with a DNS covert channel.
WTF? What kind of college is it? Is it software on your pc? Or something in between? Best solution is apply to college that isn't shit. 2nd solution is use vps. Get a vps and browse there
Use ultra surf.
ssh -D makes a socks proxy. ssh to your home machine with that and tell the browser to use the proxy. (make sure you set the option to force DNS requests over the proxy) bam, sorted.
Give it back jamal
And make sure you make your ssh server listen on 443 not 22 since it's not always open but outbound 443 almost always goes through firewall (unless they set up deep packet inspection but that's probably outside the "college just doesn't want you to watch tranny porn on their connection" range)
A worthwhile trick (also note that you can give the port directive more than once in sshd_config to listen on both 22 and 443 at the same time) but even with the fascist policies of the typical campus network I think they're unlike to fuck with SSH, considering there's likely to be both students and staff who need it to get their work done.
They banned you from facebook? Wtf, what university is this?
Use Opera's Turbo button.
This. Can do this on d'ohs using putty
I'm in a school that has that too installed in their whole network. VPN works for me for some reason (even a shitty free one from Samsung called Opera VPN).
a lot of times the blocking isn't actually about blocking. Its about being able to say to auditors, politicians, and busybodies that they have a blocking system (so go away). They often don't care if people can get around it easily, it's just that they have to have it for cover-your-ass reasons. This sort of thing is common in the corporate world, too.
Tor browser or Brave with tor tabs.
After reading the posts here I see there is nobody here with any knowledge whatsoever. I assume, that since the knucklehead who has used fortiguard has at least taken the time to block pages then your computer is only giving you user privileges not admin/root?
In that case he will have locked down any means of communicating with a vpn what you need to do is set up a web proxy - start with setting up a linux server with apache as the web interface and squid as the proxy you will then be able to surf like the beachboys
forgot to add
you may have to get around the isp (your home isp's block on proxies by setting alternative ports up. ISP's dont generally like people setting up proxy servers that anyone on the web can use so they may block certain ports
retard alert
There is a button on that page to let you proceed anyway, click it.
The Beach Boys never surfed
"and squid as the proxy"
what the fuck does squids have to do with proxies?
it blocks it at the hardware firewall level. it uses content filtering to read packets going out and block it based on a policy. no software needed on any endpoints.
literally any obscure proxy
Honestly why not just tether data from your phone?
what kind of fucking uni is that? our Uni even allows porn sites and tor traffic
looks like dns block
>everybody believing this is at a college
OP is in highschool at the most.
Fortiguard in this context is part of the webfiltering feature on a fortigate firewall. There is no software installed on the users device.
Most colleges don't do web filtering on student subnets, so I can only assume that OP is underage and has no business bypassing the high school firewall.
Nope,
We also use Fortinet

The only thing my uni ever blocked was p2p connections.
he can use vpn
If the firewall administrator elects not to block that traffic via firewall policy / application control, sure. If OP is actually at a college, he should ask the IT department to whitelist the sites. Or he can tether his phone to bypass the school network entirely.
THEY CAN'T BLOCK ALL PORTS
I meant won't
Go to a school that doesn't restrict the flow of information.
SSH tunnel get a router with openwrt
No, but the application control component inspects the content of the first set of packets in a new flow to determine what the traffic is. Basically, the destination port is irrelevant if the firewall can determine that the client is starting a VPN negotiation and block it accordingly.
I doubt they have such HW demanding filters for a uni network, too much traffic.
In a fortigate firewall the application control feature is a subset of the ips engine, so throughput isn't that bad actually. They are probably already using application control to block P2P traffic even on student networks. So blocking VPN/Proxy traffic on top of that is only a matter of configuring those signatures to block in the policy.
I still don't see why he shouldn't just ask the IT department to allow the sites. I've never seen a college that used significant web filtering on their student network.
>P2P traffic even on student networks
Wouldn't they just ban udp?
UDP is used for a lot more than P2P connections
I know but they could do it anyway.
Most normie stuff would still work.
Just run an SSH server at home. Then you can use that a dynamic proxy, which is what almost all browsers and even the OS support natively as a socks proxy.
