A list of items that I think should be fixed in v17.1

Hi folks,

 a little list of items in XG that are broken and need fixing either before v17.1 is released or as part of v17.1 - this is based on my usage.

This is not a wish list of things to be added.

1/. IPv6 (bring it up to UTM standard)

2/. reporting - generate the reports at the time they are scheduled

3/. reporting - correct the published date/time reports are generated in the report

4/. change all KBytes etc to standard kbits/mbits/gbits/tbits

5/. fix the values in the usage report so the totals add up correctly.

6/. fix categoristation so that it actually reports categories instead of 16,000 or greater uncatergorised sites daily

7/. change reports to show correct countries, I currently have reports showing my users as sourcing large quantities of data from a reserved address (which is correct 192.168.x.x) and destinations as being other countries.

8/. fix country blocking so that it doesn't block my own country and the US.

9/. fix APs using 5ghz SSIDs (there is an outstanding fix acknowledged by Sophos).

10/. fix the use VLANs in network rules.

11/. fix IPS reports so that my users are not seen as attacking sites

12/. fix logviewer so that is either captures all traffic from internal devices or displays captured traffic. I have had devices trying to connect to the internet but no records show.

13/. fix reports so that they show the traffic from VLANs.

14/. fix the network management report so that it differentiates IPv4 and iPv6 traffic instead of showing the same traffic against both.

15/. fix the dashboard network traffic display (shown as part of the rules) so that the displayed values have some meaning, my links are on a good day 4mb/s and when a users is downloading an update the pink display shows 20,30 or more mb/s

  • Hi folks,

    this is not a wish list of feature requests but a wish list of things that are broken in the current version and should be fixed in V17.1. Some of the listed items have been broken since v15 and get no attention. There appears to be a lack of attention to QA results.

    I think Billybob identified the cause of problem being the developers are overloaded with fixes to previous releases.

  • Ian,

     

    My bad, I went ahead and deleted my post to keep this thread on topic.

  • Hi Ron,

    thank you. I am sure you must have items that you would like to add to this list. I plan to use this list as a check when the promised v17.1 rolls out sometime in the next week or two. I thought there was supposed to be v17.0 mr6 before v17.1, but maybe I have been daydreaming.

  • One I missed. When a new rule is added do not re-use existing rule numbers or alternatively delete all entries from the logs to the old rule usage.

  • LogViewer: Stop opening it full screen. This happens with Safari and Chrome on macOS 10.13.x as well as with Chome on Windows 10. When you have a 34" LG Ultrawide monitor this gets very annoying.

    Please allow the user to select the option to open a new window (same size as browser window) or go full screen and stop defaulting to the a window that covers the full desktop. 

    Kind of defeats the purpose of having it open while you are looking at anything else.
