We use our shaper and firewall to block any P2P protocols that they can
determine. So the encrypted P2P problem tends to not be that it can't be
seen at all, just that the data channel is encrypted - block the session
channel and the data channel will never be established - kind of like
the data channel on FTP.

If you try to regulate it you will slow down session creation but once
the sessions are created they will have ample bandwidth that is not
controllable...at least that is what we determined prior to blocking
altogether.

How is everyone controlling encrypted p2p traffic?

Thanks
