AWS - OpenVPN routing clash for Cato SDP
Hi, We have been a Cato customer for just over a year now and we have a hybrid network Infra, of some onprem servers and new workloads been hosted in both AWS & GCP. My question is around the use of existing OpenVPN for accessing our AWS trusted VPCs and users having issues with Cato SDP and OpenVPN clashing for DNS/routes etc.. when trying to access the AWS vs. Onprem server environments. We need staff to be on Cato SDP all the time for montioring, audting and best security practices.. however it clashes with some users who need OpenVPN AWS access. What do other companies do to get around this issue (if they have a similar routing issue at all?). Split tunnel vs. AWS marketplace Cato virtual socket (EC2 instance needed per account?). I would be very interested to see if others have seen or have a good work around to this dilemia.16Views0likes1CommentIs there any way to know the actual service signature?
Hi, "Standard Ports" information on the App Catalog is not the actual service signature. This is very difficult to configure firewall rules as I wish. Is there any way to know the actual service signature on demand? Thank you,89Views0likes5CommentsWindows CA with Cato for Device Posture Check
I’m looking for guidance on configuring a Windows CA to issue and validate RSA certificates for device posture verification in Cato. Has anyone implemented this integration?What’s the best approach for certificate management? Should we use self-signed certificates or purchase individual device certificates from DigiCert or another vendor? If anyone has implemented this, please share the pros and cons.109Views0likes2CommentsCato Rapid Recap | June 2025

Hi all, I ran into a situation with a security policy in Cato and would like to hear if anyone else has experienced something similar. Here is the scenario: I created a policy where the source site is set to "Site A", the destination is set to "Any", and the application is defined as a specific IP address, for example 192.168.1.1. In this setup, the rule does not match and traffic is not allowed as expected. However, when I change the destination from "Any" to the specific site where 192.168.1.1 is located, the rule starts working correctly and the traffic is matched. My questions: Is this expected behavior in Cato? Does using "Any" as the destination somehow prevent matching traffic to a specific internal IP? Is there something else I might be missing? Appreciate any insights or experiences. Thanks!103Views0likes2CommentsLAN NGFW and Segmentation
Hi all, This is probably a dumb question but I was looking at the recent news about Cato supporting LAN NGFW and checking EAST-WEST traffic. My question is, does this mean the Cato Sockets act as the Gateway for each VLAN? I'm just wondering how the sockets would cope with the amount of traffic going through them and getting inspected. But maybe I'm off base entirely.Solved82Views0likes2CommentsIs It Okay to Apply Double TLS Inspection?
I am considering connecting a Cato PoP and an on-premises firewall via IPSec while applying TLS Inspection on both sides. Could this setup cause any issues with communication functionality? Some security products do not necessarily discourage double TLS Inspection, while others may advise against it. However, I could not find any reference to this in Cato's Knowledge Base. If anyone has experience operating with a similar configuration, I would appreciate it if you could share any insights on how it works in practice and any issues to be aware of.Solved115Views0likes4Comments
