- SQL Parser timeout was added: A timeout was added for parsing operations. If reached, the SQL statement is processed as per STRFW, 81, 2, “Action for SQL that cannot be parsed“. The possible options for Action for SQL that cannot be parsed are:

- 2=Allow+Extended log
- 5=Reject

The extended log (known as ILOG) enables later checking of the SQL at Raz-Lee Security.
