Unable to Clone a WAF rule in XG 18.5-MR2

Hello Robert,

Thank you for contacting the Sophos Community.

Was this the error you were getting?

If so, is because you need to change the listening port or the domain protected by the WAF rule

Regards,

So i had a simple WAF rule that was listening on xxxx.xyz.com

I cloned it to blah.xyz.com and the xxxx.xyz.com was working just fine.

blah.xyz.com just kept giving me forbidden.

I have created these dozens of times in the past.

Re-created it manually exactly the same way, and it worked.

Hello Robert,

Thank you for the follow up.

If you could replicate, and send me the steps I could double check, but basically what I did was:

1. Clone the WAF rule

2. Try to save, got the error

3. Change Port 

4. Saved

Regards,

Build out a WAF firewall for a https:// site.

Confirm it works.

Clone that rule and change the https:// url and the webserver.

It saves fine but won't function.

All requests fail in a "Forbidden" As if you didn't have it configured.
