Decryption issues with certificate.

L0 Member

This is a new deployment and testing decryption. I have generated a self signed cert from the firewall and imported it into the local trusted root authority store on my computer.

 

If I try to go to a site that is encrypted (eg https://www.google.ca ) I dont see my browser using the PAN cert (the cert used instead is the external Google.ca cert).

 

If I go to a blocked site I will first get an Untrusted cert warning. Although the certificate is the one issued by the PAN it warns : NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID because the redirect page is for  https://207.246.147.190:6083/php/urladmin.php?vsys=1&cat=15011&title=adult&rulename=URL-Filtering-IT...

 

Not sure what I am doing wrong on this. I have gone over several docs on this and they all seem fairly straight forward (and I think I followed them correctly)

 

Thoughts?

Thanks

Hello,

Which browser are you using. FireFox is a different beast since it has its own certificat store and doesnt use the one on the machine. Both Chrome and IE do use the computers cert store. I would suggest trying IE and see if you get different results.

I have tried Chrome and IE with no joy. However since the issue seems to be that the cert is for the PAN but the URL it is checking is an unknown external address it would be something to do with that..
