Hi George,

If you temporarily add a rule that allows access to everything does Skype work? If so, it sounds like you may need to track down the blocked site and add that to your allowed rule.

Regards,

Matt

Hi George,

Did skype work when you added the rule to allow everything?

The misses column for the default rule shows the time in the rule, not the number of misses. There won't be any misses for the default rule as anything that reaches it is effectively a hit.

Rules are evaluated from the top down, so by the time a request reaches the default rule it can't go any further and will return the default rule result. When a request is received by the WWW proxy it is evaluated against the rule at the top of the list, if it matches then it returns that rule result, otherwise it falls through to the next rule in the list, and so on until a result is returned or it hits the default rule, at which point it returns the default rule result.

Hi George,

Did you block access to all IPs with a web access rule or something else? If you specify a proxy in Skype are you able to connect? If you'd like to submit a ticket to our support desk I can connect in with you and have a look at what is happening.
