## Symptoms

- * Application Control and URL Filtering blades do not work when Security Gateway is configured as HTTP/HTTPS Proxy in Non Transparent mode:

  * Application Control and URL Filtering rules are not enforced for HTTP and HTTPS traffic  

    (for example: a Block rule does not block the relevant traffic).

  * There are no logs from the Application Control and URL Filtering blades.

* Changing the Proxy Mode from Non Transparent to Transparent in Security Gateway object and installing the policy resolves the issue.

* The client facing interface and/or the interface where the proxy is listening is configured as "Interface leads to DMZ".

## Cause

In SmartDashboard, the setting "`Enable HTTP inspection on non standard ports for the Application Control & URL Filtering Blades`" is disabled (go to *Application \& URL Filtering* tab - in the left tree, expand the *Advanced* - click on *HTTP Inspection*).

Traffic on TCP port 8080 s considered as non-standard port for Application Control and URL Filtering blades.  
Therefore, when Security Gateway is configured as HTTP/HTTPS Proxy in Non Transparent mode, the above setting must be enabled (by default, it is enabled).  

An interface -the one facing to the clients and/or the one where the proxy listens on is configured as DMZ interface (Interface leads to DMZ).
