+## Limitations
+
+If your users receive a security risk warning in their browser when visiting a blocked page, check that you have correctly [installed a Cloudflare certificate](/cloudflare-one/connections/connect-devices/user-side-certificates/manual-deployment/) on their devices.
+
+If an HTTP request that matches a block policy does not arrive at the same Cloudflare data center as its DNS query, Gateway will display the default block page instead of your custom block page.
+
+If the HTTP request comes from a different IP address than the DNS request, Gateway may not display the rule ID, custom message, or other fields on the block page. This can happen when a recursive DNS resolver's source IP address differs from the user device's IP address.

 Gateway does not inspect or log [WebSocket](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6455) traffic. Instead, Gateway will only log the HTTP details used to make the WebSocket connection, as well as [network session information](/logs/reference/log-fields/account/zero_trust_network_sessions/). To filter your WebSocket traffic, create a policy with the `101` HTTP response code.
