Chapter 4: Taking Control of Sessions
In this chapter, you will see how you can ensure critical applications do not run out of bandwidth and less important applications are prevented from consuming too much bandwidth. You will learn how to bypass the routing table and make exceptions for certain sessions, as well as how to decrypt encrypted sessions and look within them to determine actual applications and stop threats.
In this chapter, we're going to cover the following main topics:
- Controlling the bandwidth with quality of service policies
- Leveraging SSL decryption to break open encrypted sessions
- Redirecting sessions over different paths using policy-based forwarding
