Allowing Contentfilter Server Traffic

I've got a FW rule stating any any allow from source IP 74.200.200.122.  My logs are showing that traffic from this address bound for my public IP is still being dropped per rule 60001. 

Also, what is the best way to make sure traffic from the contentfilter servers is being let through?

  • It's likely that the dropped traffic is not anything you need.  Please post the line from the Firewall log file (not the Live Log) showing the default drop.

    Cheers - Bob

    They are all RSTs or ACKs so I'm guessing the FW is requesting them?  Am I correct that these are attempts to update the content filter URL database?
