Web filter log only shows Input/Output Errors

Andrew Parker

I'm running UTM9.502-4. I've been trying to fine tune some web filtering exceptions after enabling Scan and Decrypt in Transparent mode. This caused a lot of iOS apps not work, which I've gathered is a normal occurrence because of cert pinning in the apps.

I've been looking at the log to figure out what to add an exception for, but all I'm seeing are Input/Output errors like this:

I had to hook my iPhone up to a Burp proxy to discover that an exception for inbox.google.com was required for the gmail app to work.

This is making it near impossible to figure out the exceptions I need to add. Is this a bug?

    I have simular problems with the 9.413 and connections from the Sage 200c Software. Also Our second Security Software has problems to reach his Cloud Services. If I say the software/the system, use Sophos UTM as Proxy, all works.

    So I think, this is a bug.

    My problem is: I am not able to add for all an exclude rules because in the log file I can not see which URL was called.

    Hi KaiDietrich,

    try the following:
    1. look over the CLI with "top" for the load-causing process. If it's the httpproxy as in our case:
    2. run a daily report via WebAdmin
    3. look under "Network Usage -> Top10 Clients" for the corresponding host, which causes the most traffic
    4. further troubleshooting on the corresponding host

    Do you use SSL scan over web proxy?
    If so, import the UTM certificate into the certificate manager on the host (or alternatively into the alternate browser).

     

    *** EDIT ***

    Have you entered the UTM as the default gateway on the system with the Sage software?
    If yes, you have checked the FW-Livelog and the WebFilter Livelog, if e. g. Say you want to set up an internet connection?

    What does it say?

    Have you created a test version of an "any-FW-rule" for the corresponding services only for the system on the internet (Host -> any -> Internet IPv4)?

    *** EDIT ends ***

    Many greetings

    Thank you for your Reply.

    But I don't think, this is the problem. The SOPHOS WEB Protection Cetificate is install via GPO on all Systems. So if Sage does not use his own Certificate Store, the Connection is be Trust.

    We also have no High LOAD on the UTM and yes, the UTM is the default gateway of the Network.

    The Idea to open the Firewall completly for one specific host is a good Idea, if the Software use other Ports as 80 and 443. But also here, the Entrys in the Log File shows me, that there is a problem with analyze the HTTP Headers. And a Firewall Rule don't Help if this is realy the Problem, because the Transparent Proxy Rule (Get all Communication to Port 80/443) is before the User Firewall Rules.
