Web Content Classification - Not Expecting to See Traffic

  • 1.  Web Content Classification - Not Expecting to See Traffic

    Posted Mar 30, 2016 08:55 AM

    I enabled DPI & webcc in the stateful firewall of some controllers last night, and disabled DPI/webcc in all the current roles.  I don't need to do any DPI or webcc on the existing roles, but will on some new roles I create.  To my surprise the controller is classifying Internet traffic in the AppRF > Web Content section of the dashboard, for roles that I disabled DPI & webcc.  I assumed disabling both features in these roles would keep classification from happening as I didn't want the controller to waste any cycles classifying traffic when it was unnecessary.  Perhaps classification takes place regardless, but enforcement does not?  Or perhaps this is a bug?

    That's correct

    Ahh.  Thanks for confirming!

     

    Are there any published specs stating how much webcc the 7200 series controllers can handle?  I just want to be sure I'm not bogging down the controller.
