| title: New Application Categories added for HTTP Traffic Management | ||
| description: Manage outbound traffic with more granular application categories | ||
| date: 2025-10-28 | ||
| --- | ||
|
|
||
| To give you precision and flexibility while creating policies to block unwanted traffic, we are introducing new, more granular application categories in the Gateway product. | ||
|
|
||
| We have added the following categories to provide more precise organization and allow for finer-grained policy creation, designed around how users interact with different types of applications: | ||
| - Business | ||
| - Education | ||
| - Entertainment & Events | ||
| - Food & Drink | ||
| - Health & Fitness | ||
| - Lifestyle | ||
| - Navigation | ||
| - Photography & Graphic Design | ||
| - Travel | ||
|
|
||
| The new categories are live now, but we are providing a transition period for existing applications to be fully remapped to these new categories. | ||
|
|
||
| The full remapping will be completed by January 30, 2026. | ||
