problem accesing https sites without https decryption

Mast_01

Hello,

running XG 16.0.5.1 MR1 i set up a simple rule allowing internal network to internet(lan to wan rule) with the premade "block explicit pages" web filter set and NO https decryption or scanning.

so this should essentyially ignore https traffic save for url scanning(AFAIK), turns out it's NOT working, customer has a ton of issues with https pages:

they give http 500 error, skype voice don't work, teamviewer conenctions fail, etc.

i see nothing blocked in the web access log.

 

so what's going on?, why is it breaking my https connections, i don't want to disable all scanning as that's a no-go but as it is i must do so to make this work, i'm not interested on https scanning as that breaks skype when using AD auth

    no, i was not aware of that.

    1) how do i disable it?

    2) why should i disable it?, as that would prevent non-https apps to be discovered, and as the name implies it would rmeove a layer of control for those apps, or is it somehow forcing https decryption on the background?
