Is there certain UDP traffic you will be looking at?

There is not. I have worked o nothe rsecurity products (firewalls) that allow you to select wether the port is tcp/udp. I'm curious to know why there is no option with CATO, or is this something that needs to be enabled in the backend?

  Hi georgerod,
  
  Understood.
  On the KB, it mentions: "It directs TCP/UDP traffic from the Internet to specific internal resources..."
  
  Can we check if you are encountering any issues related to UDP, currently?

    I am not having any issues. I am just inquring as to why we dont have the option to choose tcp/udp.
    Maybe I should put this in the Ideas section
