18.0-GA: WAF Creation Button is missing

4ng3er over 4 years ago

Hello everybody,

after an fresh install of 18.0-GA i am not able to create WAF rules:

The "New WAF" button is missing. Any suggestions?

The option is not disappeared. It has been moved under action in the firewall rule.

I do not like this approach at all and even my customers will not be happy with that. I am sure a lot of people will not find the option or will not even consider that XG offers WAF.

Regards

This was the decision made on v18. I do not agree at all!

Yeah, I've been selling XG for years and I'd have had a hard time finding it until you guys pointed it out...

We all have our opinion on this apparently. It makes no sens to me WAF exists ... so ...

WAF is in fact a very limited NAT rule ... So, why not go with the industry standard ?

As I already wrote, I think that XG was easier to use and sell with the BAR and a DNAT wizard like it was in v17.

If we want to get back guys, we need to vote a feature request (I know but this is how it works) to get back nice wizard XG introduced in v16+.

I do not like the new approach where WAF is hidden or the new DNAT wizard which is incomplete and poor in terms of graphics and options.

Please vote it!
