SSL VPN - client won't re-connect unless I re-install the Sophos Connect app

Firewall Site:

- XG125w (SFOS 19.0.1 MR-1-Build365), IP Range 192

- Network range: 192.168.0.X

Remote Client Details:

- Network range: 192.168.5.X

- Sophos Connect Client Version: 2.7.75.0506

- Client OS: Win10 Pro 64bit (latest Windows updates, drivers and firmware installed)

If I uninstall the Sophos Connect Client, reboot and re-install the client and re-import the connection config it will connect the first time and I can access resources on the remote network. However, if I disconnect and try to reconnect (or try reboot and reconnect), the connection stays stuck on "please wait - establishing connection". I've tried resetting the Windows network stack, using wifi and ethernet, different user account, remove AV, disable Windows firewall, reboot network equipment.

If I check the Firewall sslvpn logs it shows the user has successfully connected each time (whether it completes the connection or not for the client).

I tested the same user sslvpn connection on a different computer and it doesn't experience this issue.

I see these warning/error in the client vpn logs:

- ROUTE: route addition failed using service: The object already exists.   [status=5010 if_index=14]

- MANAGEMENT: >STATE:1665627235,CONNECTED,ERROR

What could be causing this issue?

  • Hi Regarding the error "The error Object already exists"  mostly only occurs if the system already has routes. Please check by entering route print in CMD and see if the route is already there or not on the same interface or any other interfaces of the system. If there's a route already there, there may be a chance that there are two different networks with the same IP subnet. Once you've taken care of that, you should not see the error while connecting SSL VPN.
