Re: [FW1] Remote management connections being lost for system status viewer

Make sure your SNMP strings have not altered, I had a similar problem when
upgrading from NT 3064 patch to 3083.
I know that FW-1 binds a different port for SNMP when doing a status view.

Subject:  [FW1] Remote management connections being lost for system status
      viewer






I have a single NT management station managing 6 Nokia IP650 Firewalls (I have
an enterprise lic with no encryption). My system has been running fine for
several weeks, but I now have a problem connecting to my Firewalls. When I look
at the system status viewer I get a "?" for some of the firewalls, which
firewalls varies somewhat randomly. According to the book this means that The
Management station cannot resolve the Name / IP address. I am using a local host
file and no DNS. When I try to telnet to the firewalls this works fine (so name
resolution works OK). I have done an FWPUTKEY on both management station and
firewall and have restarted the firewalls and management station. I can still
install a Policy OK, but the system status viewer cannot see the firewalls
still.

Can anyone offer any advice.

Cheers, IanC
