Sophos Firewall Change Port of VLANs via XML

IT_Team

I followed this helfull guide:

 Sophos Firewall: Interface / VLAN Migration via XML Import/Export 

I am facing a migration from SG (UTM) to XGS (SFOS) with hundrets of VLANs an DHCP-Server.

Sophos Migration Support converted the config of the SG and provided it to me as a .backup file that i successfully loaded in the XGS 2100.

I now have all the VLANs on the wrong interface.

I tried to replace all "Port3" to "PortA1" just for a few VLANs with this xml:

    Check the XML File about those values:

     ERROR Mar 20 12:11:25Z [19986]: Parser Error: xmlvalue for jsonkey="gatewayname", xmlelement="/VLAN/GatewayName" cannot be found in request file.

    Something is oddly broken with a WAN VLAN you have. Do you have a VLAN as WAN? 

    __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    No WAN VLAN: all VLANs are in the zone LAN.

    The only Interface in the zone WAN is Port2.

    I can't find an entry "gatewayname" in the XML-File?

    Maybe it is worth a try to delete all VLANs prior to the import? Is there a posibility to delete all with CLI or XML-Import, or must them be deleted via Web-Admin?

    Deleting the 460 VLAns via the web-Admin would otherwise take at least 2 hours, because listing the VLANs alone takes 30 seconds each time.

    Something seems to be off in V19.5 MR1 at least. 

    I can reproduce this problem and looking into it. Seems to be related to the fact, that the VLAN is already available on the firewall. 

    So if you can delete the old VLAN, this should work as an upload. But the edit (move) of a VLAN seems to be break. 

    BTW: I can confirm, deleting the old VLAN works. The Name seems to be the problem. 

    Please create a Backup before doing this!

    We could try to workaround this. So if you edit the XML and add a 1 to all the VLANs, this could work. Verify you have only VLANs in your Import Export. Create a copy of your XML. 

    Then do the following in Notepad+: 

    This should add a 1 to all namens. 

    Upload this XML to your firewall with the new Port assigned. 

    Then upload the old XML (with the normal name but the Port Change). 

    Nevertheless, we are looking into this problem, why this occurs in the first place.

    Posted a Workaround in my initial response - in case   you did not see it. 

    __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

  • 0 in reply to LuCar Toni

    I not quite understand the workaround. Does adding a 1 to the VLAN change the bounding to the interface?

    Or did you mean, that i should test the adding for errorfinding?

    I tested adding new VLANs to the right Interface PortA1.

    That worked:

    The XML:

    My initial problem is, that i have 460 VLANs on interface Port3 that should be on interface PortA1.

    My idea was to move the VLANs, or delete all VLANs and generate them on the interface PortA1.

    For the latter option, I would like to know if I can delete VLANs in bulk (or every VLAN on interface Port3) via CLI or import.

  • 0 in reply to IT_Team

    You need to have "every" VLAN deleted on Port3? 

    You can do an export of all VLANs, change the Port like above and then "unbind" the Interface in Webadmin by changing it to "None". This will delete ALL VLANs on this interface. 

    __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    If i understoud that right, for deleting all VLANs on Interface Port3, i changed the Port3s "Network Zone" to "None":

    Then i got a message "It will take time to complete. The Status can be viewed from the "Log viewer" page"

    In the Log "Admin" i can see about 30 of the follwing entys:

    22.03.2023 12:38    GUI    Successful    admin    192.168.129.226    Zone 'LAN' settings were changed by 'admin' from '192.168.129.226' using 'GUI'
    22.03.2023 12:38    GUI    Successful    admin    192.168.129.226    IP Host(s) were deleted by 'admin' from '192.168.129.226' using 'GUI'

    After 2 days the VLANs are still present.

    I was looking into my recommended read once again: It state actually, that you have to unbind / delete the old VLANs first. Totally forgot about that part. 

    About your unbind issue: That is odd to me, sounds like there is a problem with your installation. Could you raise a support case and give the Support ID here? The unbind should work in a timely manner (could take some more minutes due the fact, you try to delete that many VLANs).
