"Securly" security provided by school conflicting with web proxy.

Hi,

do you have exceptions created for the website?

Ian

No - I think it might be somethiing to do with both the XG and the Securly imposing safesearch and other constraints - but how to know?

Hi Paul,

is the google issue from within the 'security app" or is that a seperate access issue using the firewall rule policies?

Ian

The phenomenon is that when using a LAN->WAN rule for that user, when the Web proxy is used, and that has safesearch etc configured then a browser in a session by that user gets "empty" results when going to google.

If I turn off wenb proxy and trely on DPI in the rule the problem goes away.

I am trying to understand what might be going on - the DPI method doesn't do anything to Google, but web proxy does - I presume that Securly conflicts in some way, with the proxy, but don't understand what or how - and I prefer not just to believe in magical incantations for setup - hence the question.

Regards,

Paul

Hi Paul.

from memory DPI does not scan UPD traffic. Also to use the full functionality of web proxy you would need to instal the XG CA on the device.

Ian

There is a document by Michael Dunn which I cannot find at the moment that might help you understand some of the issues.

Thanks - I would welcome the document if you can find it!
