DHCP Options for VoIP

    There are two new settings for DHCP options. Many VoIP phones use these DHCP options to download the boot configuration. The new settings are: •

TFTP Server IP

— The IP address of the TFTP server where the DHCP client can download the boot configuration. This corresponds to these DHCP options: •  Option 66 (TFTP server name)  Option 150 (TFTP server IP address)

TFTP Boot Filename

— The name of the boot file. This corresponds to this DHCP option:  Option 67 (boot file name) Option 66 and 67 are described in RFC 2132. Option 150 is used by Cisco IP phones.

WatchGuard Training

DHCP Options for VoIP

 To configure the DHCP options: • Edit a trusted or optional interface • • Select

Use DHCP Server

Click

DHCP Options

• Type the

TFTP Server IP

and

TFTP Boot Filename

required by your VoIP phones

WatchGuard Training

Network Dynamic NAT — Set Source IP Address

 When you configure a new dynamic NAT rule, you can specify the source IP address to use for traffic that matches that rule. • The XTM device changes the source IP address for packets that match this rule to the source IP address you specify. • The source IP address must be on the same subnet as the primary or secondary IP address of the interface specified as the

location.

WatchGuard Training

Network Dynamic NAT — Set Source IP Address

  Previously, you could set the source IP address only in the dynamic NAT settings in a policy.

If you do not set the source IP address, or if the source IP address is not on the same subnet as the outgoing interface, dynamic NAT changes the source IP address to the IP address of the interface from which the packet is sent.

WatchGuard Training

Serial Modem Failover on XTM 330 and XTM 5 Series

  Serial modem failover is supported for XTM 2, 3, and 5 Series devices.

• Previously, modem failover was supported for XTM 2 Series and XTM 33 only.

• This release adds modem support for XTM 330 and all 5 Series devices.

The

Network > Modem

option is now available for XTM 2, 3, and 5 Series devices.

WatchGuard Training

Branch Office VPN Modem Failover

   Branch Office VPN can use a modem for failover if modem failover is enabled for the device.

To configure a VPN gateway for modem failover: • Enable modem failover in

Network > Modem

• Configure the local gateway endpoint to use a domain name ID for tunnel authentication.

• Select the

Use modem for failover

check box.

If the device has multiple external interfaces: • You must add a gateway endpoint for each physical external interface.

• The local gateway ID for each external interface must be unique.

WatchGuard Training

Branch Office VPN Modem Failover

  When failover occurs: • If all external interfaces are down, the XTM device starts a serial modem connection between the two sites. • • The XTM device initiates a VPN connection over the modem connection. The XTM device uses the first local gateway ID configured for the external interface as the local gateway ID for the modem connection. Because the device with modem failover enabled uses an ID for tunnel authentication, the device with the modem must initiate the VPN connection. • This means that you cannot enable modem failover for both gateway endpoints for the same branch office VPN tunnel.

WatchGuard Training

Hotspot External Guest Authentication

 When you enable a hotspot on the Wireless Guest network, you can now select the

Hotspot Type

: •

Custom Page

— This is the hotspot splash screen on the XTM device. It presents the hotspot user with terms and conditions they must agree to before they can use the hotspot.

•

External Guest Authentication

— This new option allows you to redirect new hotspot users to an external web server for user authentication.

  The

Authentication URL

and

Authentication Failure URL

values are pages on an external web server.

The

Shared Secret

is used to validate responses from the web server.

WatchGuard Training

Hotspot External Guest Authentication

   When you set the hotspot type to

External Guest Authentication

, you must provide this information : • The

Authentication URL

on your external web server of a page that does hotspot user authentication or collects other information.

• The

Authentication Failure URL

on your external web server of a page to redirect users to if external guest authentication fails.

• A

Shared secret

that is used to validate the access response from the external web server.

You must configure the external web server to: • Accept an access request from the XTM device.

• Authenticate the user (or perform any other function that you want to use as a criteria for hotspot access.) • Provide an access decision to the XTM device.

All communication between the XTM device and the external web server occurs in the form of URL query strings sent through the hotspot client browser.

WatchGuard Training

Hotspot External Guest Authentication

Interaction workflow: 3.

A wireless hotspot user tries to browse to a web page.

If this is a new hotspot user, the XTM device sends the browser a redirect to the Authentication URL on the external web server.

This URL includes a query string that contains the access request.

The browser sends the access request to the external web server. The external web server sends the Authentication page to the browser The hotspot user types the requested information and submits the form to the external web server.

The external web server processes the authentication information and sends an HTML page to the browser.

The browser sends the access decision to the XTM device.

This URL contains a query string that contains the access decision, a checksum, and a redirect URL.

The XTM device reads the access decision, verifies the checksum, and sends a redirect URL to the hotspot user's browser.

Based on the outcome of the external authentication process, the redirect URL can be: • The original URL the user browsed to • • A different redirect URL, if specified by the external web server The authentication failure URL, if authentication failed or access was denied.

System

FireCluster on Wireless Devices

    FireCluster is now supported on XTM 25-W, 26-W, and 33-W devices.

When wireless is enabled, you can configure FireCluster only in active/passive mode.

When you enable FireCluster for wireless XTM devices, the configuration must meet these requirements: • The XTM device must be configured as a wireless access point. FireCluster is not supported when wireless is enabled as an external interface.

• The FireCluster Interface for management IP address cannot be an interface that is bridged to a wireless network. • The FireCluster primary cluster interface and backup cluster interface cannot be interfaces that are bridged to a wireless network. All other FireCluster requirements and restrictions also apply to wireless devices.

WatchGuard Training

FireCluster Failover Based on Health Indexes

   Each cluster member has a Weighted Average Index (WAI) that indicates the health of the device.

The

Cluster Health

section of the Firebox System Manager Status Report shows these health index values for each cluster member: • System Health Index (SHI) — Health of monitored processes. • • • Hardware Health Index (HHI) — Health status of hardware.

Monitored Ports Health Index (MPHI) — Status of monitored ports. Weighted Average Index (WAI) — This index is used to compare the overall health of two cluster members.   By default, the WAI for a cluster member is a weighted average of the SHI and MPHI for that device. HHI is not use in the calculation of WAI unless you enable it. WAI can be a range from 0 –100. A WAI of 100 indicates no issues.

The cluster master fails over if the WAI of the cluster master is lower than the WAI of the backup master.

WatchGuard Training

Hardware Health Index (HHI)

  The Hardware Health Index (HHI) indicates the status of critical hardware components. • If no hardware failures are detected, the HHI value is 100. • If a critical monitored hardware component fails, the HHI value is zero. The HHI is based on the status of: • CPU and system fan speeds • • • • • CPU and system temperatures System voltages Cryptographic chip Power supply (XTM 1050 and XTM 2050) Hard disk (XTM 2050)

WatchGuard Training

Hardware Health Index (HHI)

  By default, hardware health status is not used in the calculation of the weighted average index (WAI) for the cluster members.

You can enable this option in the FireCluster Advanced settings.

• When this option is enabled, the WAI calculation is a weighted average of the SHI, HHI, and MPHI. • Exception — if the HHI of a cluster member is zero, the WAI is zero.

WatchGuard Training

Configurable FireCluster Lost Heartbeat Threshold

    The cluster master sends a VRRP heartbeat packet that contains the WAI health index of the cluster master through the primary and backup cluster interfaces once per second. The Lost Heartbeat Threshold determines the number of consecutive heartbeats not received by the backup master to trigger a failover. Configure this threshold in the FireCluster Advanced settings.

• The default value is 3.

• The maximum value is 10.

If a FireCluster experiences unexplained failovers, with no known cause, increasing the Lost Heartbeat Threshold might increase cluster stability.

Centralized Management for XTM Devices Behind NAT Gateways

   Management Tunnels enable you to make a management connection to your remote XTM devices that are behind a third-party NAT gateway device, so you can centrally manage your remote XTM devices.

Each Management Tunnel has the Management Server gateway Firebox at one end of the tunnel, and one or more remote XTM devices at the other end of the tunnel.

The configuration options are simplified based on which end of the tunnel each device is located.

Centralized Management for XTM Devices Behind NAT Gateways

  The Management Network in the previous diagram should be defined by a VPN resource for the gateway Firebox.

• For example, consider that if the Management Server is on the Optional-1 network behind the gateway Firebox, select

Optional-1 Network

as the VPN resource. For other scenarios, you can use a custom VPN resource.

A remote XTM device’s management IP address is a virtual IP address that is used to establish the Management Tunnel and to connect to the remote XTM device. The IP address is used as the outward facing 1-to-1 NAT address for the Management Tunnel.
