HTTPS Exceptions

You can create an exception list for network locations that you want to exclude from HTTPS inspection, for specific sites or web categories for end-users' privacy.

Prerequisite

Before you add network locations to HTTPS exceptions, make sure that SSL inspection is enabled. For more information, see HTTPS Settings.

To add a network location to the HTTPS exception list:

1. Go to Policy and select a policy profile.
2. Go to Network > Content Inspection and click HTTPS Exceptions.

   

3. Click the + icon.

   A pop-up window appears.

   

4. From the Method list:

   • To exclude by category, select Category and select the category from the Category list.

   • To exclude a subnet, select Subnet and enter the subnet value in the Subnet field.

   • To exclude a domain, select Domain and enter the domain name in the Domain field.

5. (Optional) Enter your comments.
6. Click Add.
7. To import a list of exceptions from a JSON file:
   1. Click the icon.
   2. Click Upload and select the JSON file that contains the exception list.
   3. Click Import.

      The system appends the imported list to the existing list.

8. To export the HTTPS Exceptions list, click the icon and click Export.
