  • Hello  ,

     

    Thanks for your article, I would like to highlight the adverse effect for FQDN firewall rules. Majority of the above domains are pointing to content sharing server Akamai. Akamai share the same IP with many other domain then live.com and Skype.com.

    Due to the same IP share by other website, the above FQDN firewall rule may allow other traffic which may include web category like finance, software update, video streaming , image bank etc.

     

    I will highly recommend to contact support and get the patch applied.

     

    Good Luck!!!

    Regards, Ronak.
