open access to all users only for a specific site (microsoft.com)

TarekHalloun over 2 years ago

hello

i need to open microsoft website (for office 2021 activation and such) for every user i have

i used the web exception to allow them but noticed that if a user is not present in any firewall rule , the exception don't apply

is this normal behavior ? if yes what should i do ? should i make a rule for everyone just for the microsoft site ?

thank you

Hi,

how are your users authenticated in the firewall rules? Do you use clientless users. The firewall will block access if the IP address being used is not specified either by address range or a specific address.
