Application Protocols list in ES - unclear in documentation

damode
Motivator

The documentation for Application Protocol list in ES states "The Application Protocols list is a list of port and protocol combinations and their approval status in your organization" and shows fields available in the file.

Field Description

dest_portThe destination port number. Must be a number from 0 to 65535.
transportThe protocol of the network traffic. For example, icmp, tcp, or udp.
appThe name of the application using the port.

 

But where is the field for approval status ? or am I interpreting it in wrong way ?

You're correct, there's no approval status in the application_protocol_lookup. Docs updated, thanks!  The status part for the ports in use by the apps is in interesting_ports_lookup: 

is_requiredis_prohibitedis_secure
