Can't ping outside WAN - Firewall-acceleration

Dear Community,

we have a new installation of an XG310 with the firmware (SFOS 18.0.4 MR-4) and we are experience random ping timeout to WAN:

Example ping 8.8.8.8 works from some computer and didn't work on others. Later pings stop work from the previos pc and start work on the otherone.

To solve we have to disable Firewall-acceleration option.

Is this a bug issue? Are you working on it?

What are the feature of the Firewall-acceleration option?

Thank you

  • Hello Ste,

    this is definitely a bug.

    We have the same issue on a XG550 after the migration from 17.5.12 to 18.0.4 MR-4.

    The thing is not reproducable. We had it right after the migration on 9th of january. Then it vanished for some weeks and probably came back a couple of days ago.

    Disabling the firewall-acceleration also helped in our case but we decided to leave the acceleration on as sophos support never told us to disable it and we wanted to find the root cause. This is diffcult as running tcpdump also will let the error go away.

    We have another issue with UDP Packets and Teams Communication which might be related in some way. However this issue is older and we have seen it also on 17.5.x.

    For me it looks like some packets are dropped under certain circumstances.
