Diagram Title
7.7.2
standalone - no firewall
Installed both "custom firewall" and incoming firewall", the latter of course is supposedly disabled. -- I am using the custom firewall for iptables packet replication.
Deployed on VMWare ESXi

---
The ClearOS stops forwarding packets when the VM:
* After being suspended for several minutes
* Reverted to a snapshot that was taken previously

The workaround is to issue the command "service firewall restart" and it immediately starts forwarding.

This is a major issue for us since we can't have someone issuing a manual command when either of these events occur.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

    def routes properly, syswatch has no effect on this problem. If not standalone no firewall, what mode would you suggest.

    You are on your own if you are doing this setup as Standalone no firewall. I don't think routing is set up properly. Added to which you are disabling syswatch (from your other thread). All I can suggest is that you try re-enabling syswatch when NGFW goes down. If this does not work then I have little idea.
