Connection refused on streaming video

Hi All,

Astaro Web Gateway V7

Users are trying to access a .EDU site and can successfully, they get a connection refused error when trying to play a streaming video from the site.

I have the site whitelisted in WebSecurity>HTTP/S/URL filtering but obviously something's not correct.

2010:11:11-14:08:50 vcc-prdv-awg01 httpproxy[27652]: id="0002" severity="info" sys="SecureWeb" sub="http" name="web request blocked" action="block" method="GET" srcip="10.10.15.58" user="" statuscode="502" cached="0" profile="REF_DefaultHTTPProfile (Default Proxy)" filteraction="REF_DefaultHTTPCFFAction (Default content filter action)" size="2286" time="1 ms" request="0xa5d5fd50" url="mms.fvtc.edu:8081/.../24YearsOfProgress.wmv
2010:11:11-14:08:50 vcc-prdv-awg01 httpproxy[27652]: [0xa5d5fd50] send_request_headers (request.c:172) write: Connection refused 

Is what I get in the log file.

Please help, thank you.

  • Hi, Brian, welcome to the User BB!

    statuscode="502" is the reason you were blocked; the proxy didn't purposely block you.  Have you selected 'Bypass content scanning for streaming content'?

    If that wasn't the issue, do you see any problem in the Intrusion Prevention log about 2010:11:11-14:08:50?  If not, then your best bet is to avoid the proxy for that site ('Transparent mode skiplist' if you're operating the Proxy in transparent mode).

    Cheers - Bob
