  • And it continues with Address Objects and Address Groups: It is such a small thing to have a default "sortby" on a column when retrieving data from a table. Why isn't it there?
    in Grrr, another Gen 7 annoyance - just a little sloppiness to make my day - lack of proper sorting! Comment by Larry January 2023
  • SonicWall Support came through with a Hotfix that corrects this problem. They had already tracked it as a problem. If you encountered this issue and need to resolve it now, you can contact Support to obtain it. On the other hand, if you can wait at least until the end of January, a new firmware revision (either 5095 or…
    in Anyone experience problem with Botnet Exclusion Group? Comment by Larry January 2023
  • The default exclusion group works just fine with the two Firewalled Subnet groups, which uses a third layering of groups (and I didn't think you could do that).
    in Anyone experience problem with Botnet Exclusion Group? Comment by Larry January 2023
  • Further testing this morning shows that an exclusion Address Group with a Host Address Object works. An Address Group with a Host Address Object and a Range Address Object works. However, it fails when an Address Object of type FQDN is included. I validated this sequence in devices with firmware levels 5050 and 5095. Once…
    in Anyone experience problem with Botnet Exclusion Group? Comment by Larry January 2023
  • @TKWITS - Tim, I removed the two groups and added all the individual entries. Works just fine in the Geo-IP setting exclusion. Fails completely in the Botnet exclusion. Edited to say: It also works properly when you go into DIAG and revert the Gen 7 device to use the Gen 6 UI... Something is very wrong here and needs to be…
    in Anyone experience problem with Botnet Exclusion Group? Comment by Larry January 2023
  • Yes, I've always done that - didn't know it was an aberrant behavior. Works just fine for GAV exclusions (although I'm seeing that same ipv6 entry here instead of mixed). Only the Botnet seems to have a problem with it. I'll try the individual entries instead of the groups in a little while, but gosh that would be really…
    in Anyone experience problem with Botnet Exclusion Group? Comment by Larry January 2023
  • The TSR contains useful information. The upside is that all your modifications are there. The downside is that it contains all the default stuff from SonicWall - and wading through that is a chore. I'm taking the dual screen approach to manually rebuilding. On one screen I've got the existing TZ Gen 6.5 device. On another…
    in TZ470W - how to validate configuration? Comment by Larry January 2023
  • Well, that's a major difference. Note that this SID (13660) is Low Priority. Do you happen to have Prevent enabled or not in your settings? And how do the Gen 7 settings compare with your previous device? The only way I know to "validate" this stuff is to push out a TSR from each device - one from the old, and one from the…
    in TZ470W - how to validate configuration? Comment by Larry January 2023
  • @Simon_Weel Regarding your statement: I imported the settings from our TZ400 appliance See my comment in this thread: https://community.sonicwall.com/technology-and-support/discussion/4800/new-tz350-cant-upload-firmware-update#latest
    in TZ470W - how to validate configuration? Comment by Larry January 2023
  • @Rinconmike - no external memory in a TZ270W and was not using SSL VPN. It just up and restarted on its own. Case opened with all the supporting documentation (felt bad that the tech wanted a fresh copy of the log despite knowing the case was about a reboot - because we know it has no information at that point about…
    in TZ670 Random Reboot on 5095 Comment by Larry January 2023
  • Chiming in here: Saturday morning, doing some routine, unplanned work, and oops! I've got no internet. Turns out my TZ270W (SonicOS 7.0.1-5095-R3599) rebooted on its own. First time I've noticed, and now I'm curious to know how to track down previous reboots....
    in TZ670 Random Reboot on 5095 Comment by Larry January 2023
  • I need to clarify when you wrote: I uploaded the configuration from the old one to the new one and it is working Do you mean you went to System, then Settings, then Export Configuration in the old device? And then went to System, then Settings, then Import Configuration in the new device? If so, that is NOT a valid method…
    in New TZ350 Can't upload firmware update Comment by Larry January 2023
  • Then, since you haven't shown us a screenshot of the information that does appear, I'll repeat what I said earlier: If that page does not include the Auth Code, you are going to have to contact Support.
    in where do I find the authentication code for GSM (windows) Comment by Larry January 2023
  • @SnarfySplat what information is shown on the Product Details page for your GSM serial number? Here's what mine displays: Complain all you want, but I'm only willing to help someone who puts in at least a minimal amount of effort.
    in where do I find the authentication code for GSM (windows) Comment by Larry December 2022
  • @Nayro01 I am a Managed Services Provider (MSP) and create one Tenant for each client (which I consider a "site" to match my RMM and PSA products). That's because I work with family owned and operated small businesses with between 5 and 25 employees. Some clients have multiple locations, and I resolve that by putting the…
