Following are a few limitations when using the outbound SSL decryption feature:

  • Decryption of VLAN tagged packets is not supported in NS9300, NS9200, NS9100, NS7350, NS7250, NS7150, NS7300, NS7200, NS7100, NS5200, NS5100, NS3500, NS3200, and NS3100 Sensor models.

  • Decryption of double VLAN tagged packets is not supported in NS9300, NS9200, NS9100, NS7350, NS7250, NS7150, NS7300, NS7200, NS7100, NS5200, NS5100, NS3500, NS3200, and NS3100 Sensor models.

  • Only SSL HTTP traffic on port 443 is decrypted.

  • If the Sensor performing decryption fails, all the sessions timeout and you have to recreate the session manually.

  • Failover is not supported for outbound SSL decryption as the session keys are always available in the active Sensor only. The session keys are not synchronized to the passive Sensor.

  • Traffic statistics and performance charts are not supported for outbound SSL decryption.
