Proxy SG Policy Tracing

Can only be used for troubleshooting intercepted traffic (not bypassed).

A trace can be setup per rule , using the Track column of the rule, or by criteria, by setting up a trace rule.

Policy tracing can be enabled globally (not recommended) or filtered for specific traffic.

Globally enabled via Configuration>Policy>Policy Options>Default Policy tracing

To perform a policy trace for specific access:

Create a new layer for the access you want to trace. For example, create a web access layer with a client ip of 10.1.1.1. In the track column, select Verbose tracing. Install policy

Once a policy trace is turned on, you can view the trace file created by going to https://:8082/Policy

Each transaction is evaluated separately

Policy is traced until a match is made in policy. For example, if there are 3 rules on a layer, and the 1st rules matches the traffic. Rules #2 and 3 are not evaluated.

The results in the trace reflects the browser transactions and not necessarily the user transactions.
