Hi,

if you are a business user, then through the Sophos support or your reseller/partner. If on the other hand your are a home user then with a little more detail you will have reported the bug.

What version of XG and on what hardware?

I have two XG's at the moment, an XG85 and an XG105, the XG105 is behind the NATed ADSL router which is about a month old (new).

It's simple problem, if the ADSL modem picks up a new IP address, the VPN on the sophos drops. and wont establish again until you reboot the sophos.

I've gone hard in MS Paint below to give you a technical view of my setup.. all works fine till the dynamic IP changes then only way to fix it is to reboot the sophos.

Rather than rebooting the XG, just try resaving the interface.

Why the XG behind a NAT router, does not improve security.
