Enable transparent proxy

Good day,

I have recently configured the transparent proxy by enabling Decrypt & Scan HTTPs in the firewall policy.  It works well with windows computers as long as I import the sophos firewall self-signed root CA certificate.  However, with Android devices, It tells me that the network has "no internet" and the play store does not work. How can this be fixed?

Brian,

you need to import the CA into Android device using the device import procedure. Have a look at this kb:

Hi lferrara, I actually did that already with the same results.  I am able to browse the web without issue, but the connection continues to say "no internet" which breaks a lot of apps and the google play store. My research is leading me to believe that it has something to do the security policies of Android Nougat and self signed certificates. Have no other users reported such an issue?

Brian,

I do not own an android device. Try this link:

It seems the behaviour with Android Nougat has changed. I suggest you to open a new thread. This one is already answered.

Thanks

Thanks lferrara. Opened one a few minutes ago.
