XG105 - Firewall rules locking up

Hey everyone,

 

We have just swapped out a Draytek router for an XG105 for a client, copied exactly the firewall rules per the Draytek and most of the services have come across successfully. We now however are having issue with some remote SIP phones, for whatever reason whenever we attempt to make a call via a remote SIP phone it stops all firewall rules working on the Sophos, only way around it is to delete the 5060 and 6090 rules, restart the Sophos then all is fine again, confirmed this by added again and as soon as i make the call the sophos drops the firewall traffic from running until deleting the SIP rules and rebooting.

Have tried different firmware but issue persists on all.

Have tried turning off the IPS service, no change.

Nothing is flagging under Application or DDOS with packet drops etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Hi Julian, 

    Update to the latest version firmware and check #1 in my troubleshooting guide. Packet capture will help you look at the packet flow from the firewall rules and drop capture will help you discover what causes the drops. Show us any relative drops during the call.

    Thanks

  • Hi Sachin,

     

    Sorry for late reply, I have gone through this with Sophos techs and senior techs, unfortunately no luck.

    Latest firmware has been applied and also rolled back to test other firmware, issue still persists.

     

    Its a very strange issue, the external VOIP phone connects the very first time perfectly fine, once you make that first call off it whether it be to a local extension to the PBX or an external number it refuses to connect, times out and hangs up. Then when you restart the phone you will find it no longer registers and the firewall rules have to be deleted and re-created for the phone to register again.

    Also no IPS/DoS logs stating anything, all showing 0 packets dropped.
