Hello,
I cannot access a service/port when the firewall (security policy) is enabled, but the traffic goes through when it is disabled.
However, I cannot see the traffic entry in the logs so I can whitelist it and reenable my firewall.

Kindly advise

Model: USG1100

    Hi @nacho,
    The asymmetric route led to the issue.
    Create a policy based route on the L3 device where under the firewall to ensure the return traffic through the firewall.
    The issue was resolved. Thanks your time.

    Hi @nacho
    Please check you don't have the rule such like Src:LAN DST:WAN ACT:Block
    And kindly provide your configuration via Private Message. 
    I'll check and give the advice. 
    Thank you

    Hi @nacho
    I saw each WAN to DMZ rules have restricted destination IP.
    If only specific address cannot pass , please check you have the rule for the destination addresses.

    If the issue still we can have the remote session and please send your available time. 
    Thank you
