SSL VPN dropping through a CheckPoint firewall
Permalink  





I have searched through CheckPoint's knowledge base and can't find anything pertaining to a problem we're experiencing, and I also read through old posts here and don't see anything so....

We are running CheckPoint NG fp 3 on a 2 Nokia IP650s.  We have a large number of contrators on site that connect to their corporate network via an SSL VPN solution.  The firewall rule is built (and has been for a year) and works fine to allow them to connect to their public Internet servers via SSL.  However, every single day at least 2 or 3 times, every contractor looses their connection at the same time.  They have persued the problem with their company but it appears that only this site is loosing the connection.

We were thinking maybe the connections table on the firewall is getting full and dropping the oldest sessions (we use the default of 25000)? 


Has anyone run into this problem?  Any suggestions for troubleshooting?


Thanks in advance!


Chris

How do you know the table is filled up?  You might want to to this on the firewall module: 


fw tab -t connections | wc -l


that will tell you the # of active connections on the firewall.  If it is close to 25000, then your assumption is correct.
