STAS Test connectivity with collector is failing

Arvin Carlos

Hello, 

 

Kindly help me please, I have configured our AD with STAS 2.2.1.0, in Sophos applicance on the general tab our  XG430 is appearing, but when I test the connecvity using the STAS collector, it is failing...the AD is already define on the our XG for STAS activation,  also and the  Windows  AD firewall is off, but still I cannot make it work. is there any XG firewall rule to define?...the AD is in the local subnet with our XG...

    Arvin,

    make sure that STAS agent is up and running and that proper ports between the 2 DC are open. Check Windows Firewall.

    Regards

    thanks, Windows firewall is off for isolation, but still STAS collector (sophos XG) testing  always failed... I already enable the STAS using the console from the XG but it is still failing...is there any logs i can see from the console or GUI that our AD is synchronizing to the XG?

    HI

    192.168.10.254 is your firewall: you can not test WMI, only PC-Client you can test in WMI.

    You can check WMI: from Domain Controller where STAS is installed, verify WMI using command line:


    Open the Command Prompt and execute the following commands:

    C:\WINDOWS>wmic

    wmic:root\cli>/user: <DOMAIN>\administrator
    Enter the password :********
    wmic:root\cli>/node: <IP-ClientPC>
    wmic:root\cli>computersystem get username /value

    If this test return username logged in in remote PC -> WMI is OK: uninstall and then re-install STAS

    thanks for the reply...

     

    WMI Test return from ad server;

     

    wmic:root\cli>computersystem get username /value


    UserName=ALDAHANCO\carlosa

     

     

    So STAS config is alrigh in the first place....so do you mean  the STAS collector connectivity  is for another AD agent collector not a sophos appliance? thats why test is failing?...maybe in the first place I do that STA running but this test collector field is confusing me....I guess?

    The user account used for STAS Service is member of Domain Admins ?

    Have you uninstalled STAS from AD and the reinstall?

    I had a similar situation that I solved by reinstalling STAS...

    Hi, the account is a domain admin, try uninstall and re-install for a couple of times but the test connectivity is still failing, but when I point the testing to another AD collector/agent, the test will be a success, there is something on the XG that our AD cannot successfully test connect as a collector, but when you test as a "sophos applicance" it will be a success which is so confusing if I did it right or wrong....
