Does the Firewall Snapshot section display the percentage of encrypted traffic flowing through the firewall?

The Firewall Snapshot section of SonicWall provides an overview of the encrypted traffic traversing through the firewall, detailing its percentage relative to total traffic. This feature is crucial for administrators to assess the security posture of their network, as a significant amount of encrypted traffic might impede traffic inspections for threats. By showcasing the percentage of encrypted traffic, network administrators can make informed decisions regarding policy adjustments or additional configurations necessary to ensure that the traffic inspection is adequately handling encrypted communications without compromising security or performance.

In contrast, the other options do not align with the functionality of the Firewall Snapshot. For instance, stating that it's false or not applicable undermines the capability of the feature to accurately represent encrypted traffic statistics. Indicating that it only applies to specific protocols disregards the comprehensive nature of the traffic analysis provided. Thus, recognizing that this snapshot indeed displays the percentage of encrypted traffic is essential for maximizing security and management efforts.
