We are currently using Web filtering in transparent mode, with AD SSO.
However certain applications (currently struggling with npm/node.js, and powershell invoke-webrequest) don't appear to be able to authenticate against the UTM, and show a blank user in the Web filtering log file, and fail to connect.
On our previous proxy/firewall (ISA server), we had a set of rules that allowed access without any authentication, but limited to specific destination or source IPs.
I would like to replicate this, e.g. with a 'rule'/policy that allows unauthenticated access to a 'safe' set of web sites/url.
Adding an exception (to bypass Authentication) based on url seems to work, but maintaining that list in regex format is quite tricky/cumbersome (and can't easily be re-used)
I have also tried adding a similar exception based on Category, or Website tag, however this still fails with an Authentication type error.
Testing this in the Policy Helpdesk also returns:
Blocked User required by policy
And the Exception isn't displayed (as it is when testing, successfully, URL based exceptions)
Any help or alternate methods would be appreciated
