Hi All,
I'm getting a lot of help desk tickets with stuff like "It looks like mathsbot.com closed the connection" (one of many sites!) I use deep packet inspection.
I've tried pretty much every option on the profile to change that, but the only thing that seems to work is adding the site (or the relevant category) to the SSL exceptions. I'm getting enough of these tickets for it not to be sustainable.
Any ideas anyone? (I do need DPI, educational institutions)
Cheers
Jon
