WAN connection from Sophos UTM to Sophos XG

RichardHughes1

Hello,

I have used the Sophos UTM product for many years now, but I'm interested on testing out Sophos XG as a replacement. I have performed a virtual install of the Sophos XG, but I'm having some trouble setting up the WAN interface on it (virtual NIC). I've tried adding this in as a VLAN, using the VLAN ID for the management VLAN, pointing the default gateway back to the Sophos UTM (10.0.0.1) which physically has the WAN link, but this doesn't appear to work? The status of the WAN IPv4 gateway just shows with a red circle.

When I try to ping an external domain, the ping will fail. If I try to ping the Sophos UTM from the "WAN" link on the XG, the ping will fail. If I try to ping an external domain from the server VLAN interface on the XG, the ping will fail... but if I ping the UTM from the server VLAN interface on the XG, the ping will succeed.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I really only want to test this for now, to familiarize myself with the product before making a decision to move to it - so don't want to break the Sophos UTM just yet.

Regards,
Richard

    If Pings does not work, it seems like the switch config and/or the UTM config is wrong.

    Try to check the firewall logs on the UTM, if the packet even arrives.

    Thanks for getting back to me. I've managed to get a bit further but having some difficulty getting Internet access on a client, using the Sophos XG. The log is showing "Firewall rule No matched rule (ID: 0)".

    If its invalid traffic, thats not correct. Disable the Invalid Traffic logging in System Services, Logging and untick "Invalid traffic". 

    Its disabled per Default on UTM and just confuse new starter.
