UTM Web Filter is Blocking everything except youtube

Ok so i'm new to Sophos UTM. i wanted to try it out before i commit.

I have it installed on a device with 4 nics. 2 nics are used to bridge the gap between Switch and Router and a 3rd is used for management.

Switch ---> UTM ---> Router

The bridge was setup as a ethernet bridge ip 0.0.0.0/24 and IPv4 Default gate is the ip of the router (192.168.10.1)

First Issue - Sophos Endpoint Live connect say it is disabled. If i remove the UTM from the bridge and only have management nic live with IP (192.168.10.8) Live connect works fine.

As soon as i turn the bridge on it fails to connect.

 

Second issue and more importantly. when i turn on Web Filter almost all websites are blocked. they either return network unreachable or host unknown. Youtube work fine

I have a firewall rule that is Any Any Any. I have tried the web filter with Any network, Internal network (192.168.10.0/24) and about every other way possible. As soon as i turn the Web filter off everything works.

I use open DNS on my router. I have tried leaving all UTM settings as defaults and setting OpenDNS in the UTM and forwarder. still nothing. 

 

any ideas?

  • ok heres one log where it is blocking. it resolves the IP so guess DNS is ok. strangely if i put the same URL into the policy helpdesk it says allowed...

  • It shows in there that the default filter action is blocking the website. Have you changed any of the filters or anything?

    Try this site:

  • mmm ye i can see the default filter action is blocking but in that filter everything is set to allow. if i change the base policy to use default filter block with everything set to block - then i can get to google but every website is blocked but instead of getting network unreachable i get a error saying blocked because of category yxz.

    i dont recall ever changing anything in the default filters.

  • Hi, Peter, and welcome to the UTM Community!

    When you bridge the UTM, you must use 'Full Transparent' mode in Web Filtering.  I can't imagine that it's possible to leave the bridge without an IP and a default gateway and have the Proxy work.  Any better luck doing it as I suggest here?
