How does web filtering rules apply?

Hello,

We have 4 terminal servers for which we have defined a web filtering policy. All the servers have an internal application installed which reaches out to the internet on port 9009 to update some information within the application. We have allowed this port under Web Protection > Filtering Options > Misc. > Allowed Target Services.

Also, we have defined a firewall rule to allow the servers reach out to "Any" on port 9009.

Still, the application isn't able to get the desired information when the web filtering rule is ON. When its OFF, everything works perfectly. However, we are not able to figure out what could be the issue.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks!

    And i think WebFilter can't recognize the 9009 traffic...

    Try to remote Port 9009 from "Allowed Target Services"
