Botnet

The Botnet Settings tab at POLICY | Rules and Policies > Settings > Botnet | Settings helps with the customization of the Botnet feature at an overall level. The Botnet Setttings tab allows you to block connections to or from Botnet command and control servers, and make custom Botnet lists. It also allows you to create a custom message to send when you block a web site, or to allow dynamic Botnet HTTP authentication. Many of the selections on this page have an Information icon that you can hover over for a screen tip.

Botnet Blocking is enabled in the Security Action Profile (SAP). After traffic matches a policy, the corresponding SAP associated with that policy is retrieved and the botnet setting from that is used for botnet blocking.
