The traffic can be blocked by the web filter and the following message can appear in WF logs: 'webfilter_command_block'.
This message means that the web filter has blocked a 'POST' HTTP method.
To allow this traffic, set 'HTTP POST Action' to 'Allow' as shown in the screenshot below:
Also, an error at 'FILE FILTER' may be be shown as a block page cause of an authentication fail on a HTTP page. This is a false positive over the File Filter profile, but is an error on the HTTP form level over the page.
Note: It is recommended to allow the post action, because if the post action is blocked, put or post actions will not work properly and will be blocked. |
