Firewall Object Issue

[menardk]

All,

I have a strange problem. Last year we upgraded to R62 from R55 and just recently went to R65. Most of our firewall objects were created under R55 and they appear to be missing the Wire Mode options under VPN-> VPN Advanced. If I create a new firewall object under R65 the Wire Mode options are there. Is there anyway to upgrade the firewall object definition so that those options are there or is the only way to delete and recreate the object?

Possible GuiDbedit might resolve this...but not 100%

I take it that the gateways have been upgraded from R55 as well and that in the object definition they now show up as R62 or R65 gateways.

Yes there are a couple of gateways that have since been upgraded to R60 from R55. However, they do not have the Wire Mode options available under the VPN Advanced section.

hi

I have some doubts can you answer to them

1) When stealth rule is the first rule in the rule base,
how the other rules will reach the firewall (which are below
the stealth rule),bcoz stealth rule drops any traffic going through firewall?

2)Can somebody explain me how we can trobleshoot when the firewall module was
down,after pushing the policies from smartcenter server?
and in other case when management server was down how the firewall will execute
the policies?

3)How to unload the policies when the firewall was down?

4)I have 10 network objects, 5 subnets
and i want to create rules for each network object to each subnet.Instead
of writing 50 rules how can i optimise my rule base?
