Can't connect to WebAdmin after restoring

JonEtkins
I am trying to move my home UTM onto newer hardware, but I'm running into problems after I restore my configuration onto the new box.  The NIC configuration is different, so I know I'm going to have to go in and reconfigure the ports to the new hardware, but the LAN interface is set up on the onboard NIC, which in both cases is a Broadcom 5700-series and comes up as eth0, so I thought I should at least be able to get in to WebAdmin without too much trouble after restoring.

However, after restoring I can ping the LAN interface just fine, but I can no longer access WebAdmin.

Can anyone suggest what I might be missing?

    Have you tried to add "any" in the allowed networks under management -> webadmin?

    Catch 22 - I can't get to WebAdmin to make that change!  But the config I'm importing from the current box already has "Any IPv4", which I would have thought should be sufficient.

    Hi,

    Did you reboot after loading the backup? I've often found that to be necessary.

    You can login to the console as root and type 'reboot', or try CTRL-ALT-DEL (although I don't think that works in recent versions), or tap the power button momentarily.

    Thanks, Barry.  Yes, I've tried rebooting, to no avail.  Meanwhile, I'm taking this as a sign that it was time to remove some of the old accumulated cruft - something I've been meaning to do for a while now - while I manually transcribe the config from the old to the new box. Fortunately my setup is not too extensive.  [:)]

    I have the same issue, and would prefer not to manually reconfigure rules...

    EDIT: Actually, I just started over and now it's working.

    This time I made sure that I used the same LAN port as the old UTM (eth0)

    I suspect that last time I used eth1 for the LAN side...
