Click the Protocols tab to manage how protocols, or non-HTTP Internet traffic, are handled by a policy.

The list on the Protocols tab includes both standard protocols and any custom protocols that you have defined on the Policy Management > Protocols page. The standard protocol groups are updated regularly.

Configure how a protocol is filtered by selecting it in the protocols tree and specifying an action (Allow or Block) from the box on the right. You can select a protocol directly from the list, or enter text in the search box to locate the protocol you want.

Use the Shift and/or Ctrl keys to select multiple protocols.

Exceptions are listed at the bottom of ther Protocols tab. You can click a protocol to view the exception rules that apply to it. Click Add to add a new exception.
