Generated traffic logs showing weird information

L3 Networker

I have a VM-500 panos-8.1.18. I am seeing traffic logs with below flags

Session End Reason- policy-deny (means traffic denied as per policy)

Action -Allow ( how can action be allowed when traffic is denied via policy)

Type- deny

 

We also have ssl decryption enabled.

Thank you for posting question @inderjit21

 

I have seen the same in Traffic logs: ( session_end_reason eq policy-deny ) and ( action eq allow ) in the case when security policy had an action: Allow however this policy had an URL Filtering Profile with Site Access: Block.

 

Is the policy you are seeing in the log using any URL filtering?

 

Kind Regards

Pavel

Yes it has url profile but there is no block under url profile just under traffic logs.

Thank you for reply @inderjit21

 

When you click on Log Detailed View icon on far left side:

does it reveal more details in the bottom section for the reason of the deny?

 

Also, could you check in Traffic log: ( session_end_reason eq decrypt-error ) or ( session_end_reason eq decrypt-unsupport-param) for any decryption errors related to this traffic?

 

Kind Regards

Pavel
