Firewall not passing data

Had to install XG firewall in a virtual machine, VirtualBox, gave the VM exclusive access to the network interfaces, WAN is picking up IP from my ISP, but I am unable to connect to Internet through the firewall.  I added a rule allowing all traffic to pass from LAN to WAN but without any success.  Any ideas?  Any help is very welcome!

  • Doug,

    if XG is installed as VM on a Computer, I am sure you have at least 2 different vNIC dedicated to XG (one for LAN and one for WAN). Also, how are the other computer connecting to XG?

    Make sure proper virtual settings are configured.

    Please share a mpa of what you would like to achieve.

    Regards

  • I have two NICs in the host computer.  Both NICs are configured to give exclusive access to the XG VM.   I have a small switch that connects all the other devices to the XG.  It is a very simple setup: networked devices connected to a layer 2 switch, switch connected to LAN interface on the XG, XG WAN interface connected to cable modem.  I am receiving a public address from my ISP via DHCP and the DNS settings point to my ISP's DNS servers.  I can't reach anything on the Internet.  Pings 100% failure from the LAN interface.
