SNS version 5.0.3 EA bug fixes

System

Bypass mechanism - SNi20/SNi40 industrial firewalls

The bypass would no longer activate when the firewall's hardware manager was unexpectedly disrupted. This issue is now fixed. This regression appeared in SNS version 4.8.7.

List of group objects

Support reference 86221

In the object database, if the number of groups to be displayed exceeds 4096 entries, the comments that are associated with each group would not be displayed. This issue has been fixed in the web interface, and when the list of groups is exported in CSV format.

Certificate revocation list (CRL) retrieval mechanism

Support reference 86153

The CRL retrieval mechanism can once again set up its connections with a source IP address that is identified as <Firewall_interface_name>.

High availability (HA)

Support reference 85802

All HA synchronization tasks are no longer systematically enabled during a firewall update. This regression, which first appeared in SNS version 4.8.6, created many unnecessary entries in the logs of firewalls that were not configured in HA.

Support references 84970 - 85311 - 85657 - 85802

The synchronization of some files in the cluster has been improved. This prevents the inappropriate generation of error messages in the system log file when some of these files are justifiably absent.

Virtual Pay As You Go (PAYG) machines

Support reference 86111

The enrollment of virtual PAYG machines now functions properly once again, and no longer wrongly displays a message indicating anyway that the enrollment was successful.

Filter - NAT

Support references 86070 - 86193

Enhancements have been made to the filter policy consistency checker to shorten the time it takes to reload the policy, and for the policy to appear in the GUI when it contains too many network objects. This also prevents users from being unexpectedly logged out of the administration interface.

Disk monitoring - SNi20

Support reference 86265

The hardware monitoring module now recognizes M2 model disks that may be installed on SNi20 model firewalls, and no longer wrongly generates an alert indicating that a disk is missing.
