Layer 7 application firewall blocking gutnella-networking

Recently our clients have been experiencing connectivity issues to our application server sitting behind MX67c firewall and having gone through the logs I noticed that the connections are seen as p2p network as Gnutella-network. I have setup a layer 7 firewall to block all p2p sometime back and had no issue until recently.

 

PS. This is my first post and any help would be much appreciated

We currently have firmware version 16.6. New versions to upgrade to are 16.16.5 and 17.9. I will upgrade and see how it goes

 

Thank you very much for your response.

a work arround this issue is to unblock the L7 FW rule thats block Gnutella-network    but to do this you will have to generate L7 rules for all the P2P categories one by one and do not add the Gnutella-network category when doing this.
