Optimizing appliance performance
When appliance performance optimization is turned on (default), only content from sites with elevated risk profiles is sent to the cloud for analysis. This applies:
- To both Advanced Classification Engine (ACE) advanced analysis and file type analysis
- Even when ACE advanced analysis is configured to include sites with a lower risk profile
When appliance performance optimization is turned off:
- All traffic is sent to the cloud for true file type analysis.
- Sites with a lower risk profile may receive ACE advanced analysis, depending on the options selected on the Web Content & Security tab.
See Web Content & Security tab for more information about configuring ACE and file type analysis.
To turn off performance optimization:
Steps
- Click the next to Optimize performance (in the top, right corner of the Device Management page).
- On the pop-up that is displayed, select Off.
- Click Save to confirm.
