APX320 remains inactive in Wireless protection

Today I added a new APX320, it showed up as unconfigured and I configured it, put it to a AP group.

Since then it is pingable but remains inactive in XG Wireless.

Sounds a bit like this but it did not upgrade firmware.

I removed it from the AP group but it keeps showing as inactive.

awed.log only showing this error repetedly:

  • any Idea from Sophos about the issue? The AP is still in this state.

    I deleted it and recreated it with new name, deleted and re-added the Zone in which the AP is from the general wireless settings on XG.

    No luck.

    I can ping the AP but it's inactive.

  • Do you have another XG to connect it to?

  • unfortunately not nearby. I could let it go central or setup a software XG on old firewall hardware. but that is some extra work I don't have time for,

    We'll try other AP from the same shipping. Hope they work.

  • new AP connected. I did not authorize it yet. It just starts reporting the same about the missing pid file.

  • Hello,

    Greetings,

    We have observed couple of issue of the same from the field. I suggest raising the support ticket to investigate it further.

    The screenshot shows both  machines. As you can see, I set some manual settings on the AP I used yesterday but also no luck.

  • We have observed couple of issue of the same from the field. I suggest raising the support ticket to investigate it further.

    we'll do that. sounds not good.

    just played with the missing pid file and created an empty one. as expected no luck.

  • What I can see is that the AP tries to connect to 1.2.3.4 (local XG) and also to wifi.cloud.sophos.com (hub-wifi-spinnaker-1194699162.eu-west-1.elb.amazonaws.com with 108.129.21.170)

    And the AP quits the TLS Session as response to Server Hello with "bad certificate"

    TLSv1.2    59125    443    79    Alert (Level: Fatal, Description: Bad Certificate)

    wifi.cloud.sophos.com has a valid certificate from 14. October 2022 and has been issued by amazon.

    I guess it is hardcoded into the AP firmware that the AP only accept the previous certificate?
