Danish,

if you configure a static IP on a client behind XG (network 192.168.0.0/24 where DG is 192.168.0.201), is the computer able to surf?

Make sure that "match know users" inside the LAN to WAN firewall rule is unchecked.

Thanks

Dear lferrara,

I have also tried on client site through static IP like 192.168.0.18/25 gateway 192.168.0.201 but client unable to surf.

Is their any changes required on WAN modem configuration?

Please if you have some time to take remote session for checking Virtual firewall?

Regards

Danish,

the subnet must be 24 and not 25.

Make sure on Vmware you have 2 separated vswitch, one dedicated for WAN and one for LAN.

Regards

lferrara,

Network Traffic has been route from Virtual XG firewall. 

I disable the WAN modem DHCP and enable the DHCP on virtual XG firewall

run the default work policy LAN to WAN and uncheck match known user in firewall role.

but When client the brows any website their is certificate error and website could not be open.

please advise.

Danish,

from XG console, are you able to ping www.google.com?

From computers, are you able to execute the same ping?

What DNS are you computer using?

can you share the LAN to WAN firewall rule screenshot?

Thanks

Dear lferrara

WAN modem DHCP Now enable and Firewall DHCP disable.

Traffic can route from FIrewall

Danish,

you did not answer all my questions.

Uncheck decrypt and scan or import the Sophos SSL CA inside your browser and the issue will go away.

Regards

Dear lferrara,

Issue still persist

please see the below screenshot of client site broswer certificate setting and firewall end site.
