| Property | Value |

| Solution ID | sk184990 |
| Date Created | 2026-06-04 |

| Technical Level | General |
| Products | Security Gateway |
| Versions | R82.10, R82, R81.20 |

## Symptoms

- * Debugs taken with `fw ctl zdebug + drop` show that traffic is dropped by the DoS deny list:

  Example Output:
  `
  DROP: dos_deny_list_check_ip`  
  ` (/local_ckp/xm/kiss_apps/R81_20_jumbo_hf_main/B997000027/include/ratelimit/dos_deny_list.h:23`  
  ` 9): DOS deny list is blocking 1.1.1.1;
  `
* In SmartConsole, there are no corresponding logs for the dropped traffic.

* The output of the `fwaccel dos config get` command shows that logging is enabled:

  `log drops: enabled`.

## Cause

A software condition prevents log generation for traffic dropped by the fwaccel DoS deny list, even when logging is enabled.
