Hi Tom, Thanks for your response. 1/ I don't have a firewall rule which allows the tcp/27017 at all but the telnet to the port 27017 from the source goes successful. 2, I have another query which is no way related to above query. For example, I have the below policy in place in my FW. The actual SSL application works fine from the source to the destination.

And which means telnet'ing the destination with TCP port does not help to verify the 3-way handshake unless we don't have "telnet" app is allowed between them? source - 10.1.1.1 destination - 172.1.1.2 destination port - 443 application - ssl service - application-default action - allow
