Traffic allowed although policy test says 'blocked'

Hello All,

I'm having a weird problem here. I want to block a server completely from accessing the internet. What I've done:

- Created a firewall rule that blocks all traffic. Checked it, works for any port except FTP/HTTP/HTTPS (as expected, as I do have web filtering enabled)

- Added a 'block all' web filtering policy for this host

- Did a policy check for this hosts' IP to, say, www.dlr.de -> Result blocked, so OK!

- Did a 'wget www.dlr.de' from the host itself - works, so NOT OK?!?

- Turn off web filtering

- Did a 'wget www.dlr.de' from the host itself - doesn't work any more

So it's definitely web filtering, but policy check everything is fine. Can anybody sched some light on what might be going wrong here?

Thank you,

   Jörg

  • Hello Bob,

    thank you. Yes, I already did that - it doesn't menition the transparent skip list, though. It would also be nice, if the 'policy check' would check against this list explicitly. It would have saved me some headache ;-)
