Adding WAN interface removes active WAN interface from Default SNAT rule, taking network down

Customer is installing a new ISP connection but will have the old one for a while as they have WAF to an internal server, and DNS pointing to current ISP PIP. 

Left Port2 configured as it was. WAN zone, with static IP info.

Configured Port3 to be the new ISP connection.  Then the network went down.  DNS didn't work.  All kinds of strange.  Checked the NAT policy as traffic is not going out the Internet and sure enough, Port2 was removed and Port3 added.

Seems like a bug to me. We've experienced this before but not consistently.  Is this an issue anyone else has faced?

  • I saw this same issue too, but in my case, the simple act of clicking the update interface button would remove all other WAN interfaces and leave only the updated one in the default SNAT rule. And I have to manually readd them.

  • We have experienced this issue as well.  But it's not a reproducible issue so we just work past it. You never know which firewall it will happen with so how do you ever engage support? The basic support folks will just add the interface back to the NAT policy and say it's fixed without ever digging down to the root cause.

  • If this happens, could we collect the logs of the firewall? Get applog.log and csc.log and tell us the time, you change it.
