Smoothwall blocking content on new Smart MX screens installation - HELP!

[mikkydoos]

Hi all,

 

Just had a load of new ~Smart MX75 screens installed.

 

Can anyone help me with a couple of Smoothwall related issues ??

 

 

1. HTTPS inspection doesn't seem to be being bypassed

 

I created a Guardian/Policy Objects/Categories category called 'Smart Screens' listing the IP's of the screens.

Created a new Web Filter/Manage Policies/ policy to Allow All.

Created an HTTPS Inspection policy to 'Do not inspect'

 

2. Smoothwall is blocking the media content in the Android(y) apps.

 

Reports/Realtime web filter report shows all the URL's being blocked showing the category group 'Unauthenticated Users'.

 

 

Where am I going wrong ??

It's not a category you want with their IPs, it's a location - categories are for places you go, location is where you come from. In this case, source IPs of your tellies in that location, everything/that location/always/everyone - Allow, and a similar policy for Do Not Inspect, and you are good to go
