Can't activate Security Heartbeat

Hi, 

I've just created a  Sophos Central Admin user, activated my Subscription (Central Server Protection Advanced / Central InterceptX Endpoint Advanced) and installed on a couple of clients. The problem is that in my Cluster of XG330 (SFOS 17.0.6 MR-6) when i try to activate the  Hearthbeat and insert my credentialsi obtain a message saying "Sophos Central registration heartbeat failed, verify your account credentials".

Any idea or someone had the same trouble ?

  • Yes, i have 2 XG in HA, received new xg and upgraded to SFOS17.0.6 MR-6  4 months ago but never registered with Central prior this moment.

    PS on the link i read : The firmware versions below have the patch and no further action is required:

    • Firewalls running v17 must have at least firmware version 17.0.0.80

     

    don't know if this is related but :

    console> system diagnostics show subsystem-info
    SERVICE              STATUS
    =====================================
    heartbeat            UNREGISTERED
    =====================================
    console>

  • Unregistered is just "un-configured". 

    Can you tell me something about the history of both?

    How old is your Central Account, did you start with a "single" appliance and recently upgrade to HA? 

    How did you build up the HA? 

  • the history is very short.

     

    I've received the XG on Avril, upgraded, built the HA and deployed (NO CENTRAL).

    Yesterday i received the serial number of Endpoint Advanced and i licensed in Central, installed on some PC and then try to activate the Heartbeat with the result described in this thread

  • i think you have to go with Sophos Support in this case.

    Would assume something went wrong on the XG itself. But i cannot troubleshoot this without an session. So the best way is to contact the support or your sophos partner.
