Ciao

I got a problem regarding wrong DNS classification.

A site of a customer as been classified as "phishing".

I put that dns on "DNS ALLOW LIST" section, but the block persist.

    Try the following by SSH or web console

    ip dns server cache-flush
debug content-filter https-domain-filter cache flush

    There is a DNS flush you can try in monitor > security Statistics > DNS content filter
