Re: [FW-1] NG AI and DNS drops



What is the error it is dropping on?  Is it a SmartDefense rule?

Subject: [FW-1] NG AI and DNS drops


Since upgrading a Checkpoint FW1 4.1SP6 to NG AI I've noticed that AI drops
a lot more DNS traffic.

It is coming from the rule that blocks traffic w/a destination of the
firewall.  I assume my NATed DNS servers have made a request to these
dropped servers, but the UDP reply is taking too long to get back to the DNS
server.

UDP Virtual session timeout is set to 40 seconds.
Should I try increasing this?  After 40 seconds, I am
sure the DNS server has given waiting for a response - so
this probably wouldn't help.

I don't have UDP protocol enforcement enabled at the moment,
so that's not it.

Ideas?

Thanks!

Edwin Davidson
