I am using Sophos Enterprise Console version 5.2.1.197 on a Windows based server.
I am having problems getting the outbound TCP rule to work without generating firewall events.
A sample firewall event would be:
Event type: No global rule
Direction: Outbound
Protocol: TCP
Remote Port: 80
Remote Address: 54.177.147.99
I have set up a global rule called Outbound TCP Rule which is a high priority rule. The settings for this rule are:
Protocol: Stateful TCP
Direction: Outbound
Remote Address: *.*.*.*
Local address: Local network
Remote Port: HTTP, HTTPS
Allow
Can someone please explain why firewall events are still being generated with this rule in place? I have tried to make the allowed connection as broad as possible in an attempt to see where the problem may be coming from, but so far no luck.
To the best of my knowledge, there are no other conflicting rules.
I apologize in advance for being generally competent with Sophos, but I am certainly no expert in this area.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
