Why each option
The log message indicates that the traffic was allowed to pass through the FortiGate, and this occurred because the URL's category had a warning action enabled.
The `status="passthrough"` attribute explicitly indicates that the traffic was allowed, not blocked.
This log message relates to web filtering and category actions, not user authentication status or failure.
The message `msg="URL belongs to a category with warnings enabled"` directly indicates that the web filter profile's action for that specific URL category was configured to "Warning."
The attribute `status="passthrough"` signifies that the traffic, despite triggering a warning, was permitted to continue to its destination.
