DNAT and other frustration with XG

I got the it NAT working and now looking to slow download with NNTP.  any ideas?

Hello Dennis M,

We are glad you were able to resolve your issue with DNAT by applying NAT MASQ on the buisness application rule. NNTP works on port TCP119, now you can have two options to slow down the download with NTTP protocol.

1) NNTP works on TCP 119, so you could create a firewall rule for that service port and apply a firewall based QOS policy using KB article.

2) Create a Application filter or use existing one and apply QOS on the Application signature "NNTP Protocol" by folowing this KB article.

Thanks. This suggestion works for me.

Maybe you can point me to guide or how to create users and groups.

Also if i point to my gw at http://172.16.1.1 without port. its prompt for login. which user is there? sophos online id and admin account all invalid.

Hello Dennis M,

The IP address https://172.16.1.1 is by default a user portal which is used for users configured on the firewall and can be integrated with Active directoryif needed. For web console the address would be https://172.16.1.1:4444. You may refer this KB article for registering a user on your firewall.
