Sophos XG Firewalls Need Reboot

Hello:

I was wondering if anyone has ever come across this issue.

We have two XG210 firewalls in HA mode. There are three WAN connections inbound. Today, one of the WAN connections was showing offline all of sudden. I was able to ping the WAN's router but nothing inside of that. The other connections were fine. Tried changing the ethernet cable from the WAN router and no change. The only thing that seemed to fix it was a complete reboot of both firewalls. Has anyone seen this before?

Thansk!

    Hi ,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Community! 

    What do you see in the syslog for the specific interface?

    Run the following command to check the status of the interface around the time you noticed this issue. 

    • grep -i "NIC" syslog.log

    Thanks,

  • Hi:

    Where do I run that command from?

    Hi ,

    You can run the command from the Advanced shell. Check out the following KBA for more information: 

    Once you have SSH access, type 5, then 3 to access the Advanced shell.

    Thanks,

  • Thanks you. What do I input for "NIC"?

    Hi ,

    You could just run the command as is or replace the NIC with the port that had the issue. 

    Thanks,

  • Hello, H_Patel:

    Running the command yields no information at all.

    Hi ,

    Would it be possible for you to share a screenshot of what you see when running the command? 

    Check if you're in /log directory with command "pwd" 

    You can find the log files in the /log directory. On the CLI, select option 5. Device Management, then option 3. Advanced Shell. Then change to the log directory using the command cd /log.

    Thanks,

  • Hi, H_Patel:

    Thanks. Got it. There is nothing around the time that Port2 showed as down. The subsequent info looks like it was from when we restarted both XG firewalls. Port3 is the HA interface. Also, notice that the Port3 link went down later in the day (15:29:15). We briefly showed Port2 down but it cam right back up.
