Traffic incompatible with Gateway inspection

The following types of HTTP traffic are incompatible with Gateway inspection.

​​ Do Not Inspect applications

Gateway does not support TLS decryption for applications which use:

  • Embedded certificates
  • Self-signed certificates
  • Mutual TLS (mTLS) authentication

To allow these types of requests through Gateway, you must add a Do Not Inspect HTTP policy for these applications and domains.

​​ HTTP/3 traffic

Gateway does not currently support inspection of HTTP/3 traffic.

​​ Disable QUIC in Google Chrome

Google Chrome by default enables support for QUIC, which is used to connect to HTTP/3 capable webpages. In order to apply HTTP policies to Google Chrome traffic, you will need to disable QUIC in the browser. This forces the browser to fall back to HTTP/2.

To manually disable QUIC in the Google Chrome browser:

  1. In the address bar, type: chrome://flags#enable-quic.
  2. Set the Experimental QUIC protocol flag to Disabled.
  3. Relaunch Chrome for the setting to take effect.

The following Windows registry key (or Mac/Linux preference) can be used to disable QUIC in Chrome, and can be enforced via GPO or equivalent:

  • Data type: Boolean [Windows:REG_DWORD]
  • Windows registry location for Windows clients: Software\Policies\Google\Chrome\QuicAllowed
  • Windows registry location for Google Chrome OS clients: Software\Policies\Google\ChromeOS\QuicAllowed
  • Mac/Linux preference name: QuicAllowed
  • Description: If this policy is set to true (or not set), usage of QUIC is allowed. If the policy is set to false, usage of QUIC is not allowed.
  • Recommended value: Windows: 0x00000000, Linux: false, Mac: <false />
