XG Firewall marking Endpoint to "at risk" - Endpoint reporting Heartbeat Status 3

LHerzog

Why is this endpoint reporting Heartbeat Status Red to our XG Firewall this morning? Status "At Risk"!

As result the user cannot access most applications.

XG Showing this:

Central is showing this:

    Hi LHerzog,

    I have the same behaviour on some Lenovo notebooks. Do you have a solution yet?
    I just had a 90 minute support session with Sophos support. Result: Client/Firewall/Central communication OK. I was advised to reinstall Central on the client and then report back to support.

    Hello,  no solution found so far.

    I opened the case with XG team, now they moved it over to the Intercept X Team, because they believe the change is from the Endpoint. This is what I think too.

    They requested the following:

    1. Can you tell me exactly how the machine is connected to the network, including topology (important)
    2. Is this a laptop/desktop,
    3. If this is a laptop is there a dock in use,
    4. How long has this been going on for,
    5. Has there been any changes to the network such as a replacement modem/cables/changes in network topology etc.

    Could you please send a fresh SDU logs from the Endpoint/Server and please enable remote assistance to Sophos Central.

    I'm currently collecting this information.

    We noticed it on Dell Notebooks and a MS Surface. All with some native or USB-C Docks. Partially connected to LAN and WiFi at the same time (may be some issue).

    we were discussing a similar issue here as well: community.sophos.com/.../sophos-heartbeat---red-in-xg-but-green-in-central

    So I created an other case for this:

    04399266 as a follow-up for cases 04121743, 04234642

    Infos.

    in one client's SDU that had  the issue on 2021-09-13 I found in health.log

    So nothing.

    If there would have been a risk, it would look like this

    Then, in the same time, the XG received  ~360 Status changes of the client heartbeat between health 1 and 3 and back to 1.

    This can be seen in the hearbteat.log on the client.

    Thanks. Got it.

    Info for other users: probably this is some kind of disclosed information but there will be an update of a Intercept-X Component by the end of the Month which should fix the issue.

    Sounds good. We have more and more clients with this problem. All the described work arounds did not help or only in the short term.

    Hello everyone, we have the same problem with some clients. Particularly with DELL laptops.
I hope the SOPHOS team can fix this issue shortly.

    check, if they have energy option S0 active. The probably do.

    cmd: powercfg /a

    If so this may be set to e.g. S3 as workaround until end of Semptember until the new Version of Core Agent 2.19.7 is released.

    Thanks LHerzog, we are going to test it while we wait for the new agent version.

    Hey Sophos, i've been told that Core Agent 2.19.7 will get pushed by Sept. 28th at the latest. So now we have 30th and I'm still at 2.19.6.

    Is this delay expected?

    Hello LHerzog,

    It looks like this release has been pushed back once again. Some issues were found with legacy operating systems, which have since been resolved. The next release is scheduled to be completed as of October 14th.
