Many customers have asked me how do they know if a request is either acceptet or not.
Right click on "ISA Server Firewall service" (open Servers and Arrays, Servername/Array, Monitoring Configuration, Logs)and select "Properties". On the "Field" page, scroll down and select Rule #1 and Rule 2#
Their meanings are:
Rule #1 This reflects the rule that either allowed or denied access to the request, as follows:
[ul][li]If an outgoing request is allowed, this field reflects the protocol rule that allowed the request.[/li]
[li]If an outgoing request is denied by a protocol rule, this field reflects the protocol rule.[/li]
[li]If an outgoing request is denied by a site and content rule, this field reflects the protocol rule that would have allowed the request.[/li]
[li]If an incoming request was denied, this field reflects the Web publishing or server publishing rule that denied the request.[/li]
[li]If no rule specifically allowed the outgoing or incoming request, the request is denied. In this case, the field is empty.[/li][/ul]
Rule #2 This reflects the second rule that either allowed or denied access to the request.
[ul][li]If an outgoing request is allowed, this field reflects the site and content rule that allowed the request.[/li]
[li]If an outgoing request is denied by a site and content rule, this field reflects the site and content rule that denied the request.[/li]
[li]If no rule specifically allowed the outgoing or incoming request, the request is denied. In this case, the field is empty.[/li][/ul]
