Specify Trusted Hosts
You can specify trusted hosts for which the UTM bypasses HTTPS traffic scanning and
security certificate authentication. The security certificate is sent directly to the client for
authentication, which means that the user does not receive a security alert for trusted hosts.
For more information about security alerts, see Manage Self-Signed Certificates on
page 384.
Note that certain sites contain elements from different HTTPS hosts. As an example, assume
that the https://example.com site contains HTTPS elements from the following three hosts:
• trustedhostserver1.example.com
• trustedhostserver2.example.com
• imageserver.example.com
To completely bypass the scanning of the https://example.com site, you need to add all three
hosts to the trusted hosts list because different files from these three hosts are also
downloaded when a user attempts to access the https://example.com site.
 To specify trusted hosts:
1. Select Application Security > HTTP/HTTPS > Trusted Hosts. The Trusted Hosts
screen displays. (The following figure shows some hosts as examples.)
Figure 123.
2. Enter the settings as explained in the following table:
Table 48. Trusted Hosts screen settings
