Checkpoint Policy Installation (a lot of buggy stuff)


- No traffic
- while installing policy, a lot of non-meaningful messages;

Firstly, Check /opt whether it is full or not.. It is vital. believe me.

Tufin - Accelerate Policy analysis calculations & Increase the amount of memory for Java

These configs are tested on 12.2 HF6;


1.      Accelerate Policy analysis calculations.

Instruction:

1.       Login to SecureTrack’s GUI.
2.       Add stcgitest.htm at the end of the address (Example: https://192.168.1.1/stcgitest.htm).
3.       Choose ‘Edit stconf
4.       Click ‘Fetch current conf’.
5.       Change the following XML tag from "0" to "1": <is_calc_topology_based_on_JAVA>1</is_calc_topology_based_on_JAVA>
6.       Save the new configuration by clicking ‘Submit new conf’ on the bottom of the screen.


2.      Increase the amount of memory which can be allocated for Java:

Instruction:

1.       Login to SecureTrack’s CLI as root
2.       Run the command: #vi /usr/jboss-4.2.2.GA/bin/run.conf
3.       Find line: JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Xms512m -Xmx1024m
4.       Change to: JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Xms1024m -Xmx4096m
5.       Save the file and exit.
6.       Run the command: #service jboss restart

Tufin Syslog Debug & St Info


SYSLOG Debug

1.       Log in to SecureTrack CLI as ‘root’.
2.       Run the command: #tcpdump -i eth0 -vv -w /tmp/Tufin.pcap -s 1500 src <ip address of device> and udp dst port 514
3.       Edit the file: vi /etc/sysconfig/stconf.xml
a.       Find the line  <DetailLevel>normal</DetailLevel> and change ‘normal’ to ‘fine’.
b.      Add the tag: <Number_Of_Syslog_Message_Handlers>1</Number_Of_Syslog_Message_Handlers>
c.       Save & exit
4.       Run the following commands:
#tail -F /var/log/st/syslog_message_handler_0 > /tmp/syslog_message_handler.log &
#tail -F /var/log/st/syslog_change_log_manager >/tmp/syslog_change_log_manager.log &
#tail -F /var/log/st/syslog_traffic_log_manager >/tmp/syslog_traffic_log_manager.log &

5.       Run the command #st restart syslog
6.       Commit a change on the device (e.g. add a comment) and wait 5 minutes approximately. Wait for this issue to reproduce.
7.       Stop writing to temp logs (#killall tail).
8.       revert changes in etc/sysconfig/stconf.xml  
9.       Run #st restart syslog
10.   Send me the log files  + /tmp/Tufin.pcap

-------------------------------------------

st info is smilar to cpinfo in Check Point, it does collect the Tufin's full config, not the monitored device revisions or policies.

Part 2: Create STINFO file.

1.            Log in to SecureTrack’s CLI as root.
2.            Run the command #st info

Juniper SSG - NS (config buffer problem)


Symptoms


It is caused by the buffer size, when tufin initiates "get config". It displays only limited part of the full config. This creates a problem while tufin is trying to get the full configuration;

Connection error! Reason:
Connection closed by foreign host.


Solution

set console page 0

> set cli screen-length 0


This allows tufin to get the full configuration as Juniper does not limit its display with a limited buffer.


Tufin Troubleshooting


Device Specific Communication Problems


1.      The version of SecureTrack; Please verify this by running the #st ver command from CLI.
2.      the output of the #top -cd1 command.


1)  Rise the debug level to high :
# sed -i 's/expect --/expect -d/g' /usr/local/st/*login # sed -I  's/normal/fine/1' /etc/sysconfig/stconf.xml

2) Then use tail for each one of the log files of the problematic device :
# tail -F /var/log/st/var/log/st/securetrack.client.<Device_IP>_<ID> /tmp/device1.log

Make sure to use a capital F ('#tail -F')

3)  Then run the command:
'#st restart'

4) Wait for 10 minutes (depends on the current timeout you have
defined) and let the tail -f collect all information needed.

5) Send all /tmp/client<IP>.log files to the support engineer.

7) When you have finished please run :
# sed -i 's/expect -d/expect --/g' /usr/local/st/*login # sed -i 's/fine/normal/1' /etc/sysconfig/stconf.xml
# st restart
