Disable SecureXL Permenantly

[HeikoAnkenbrand]

I have several issues with SecureXL at one customer environment and we also have a TAC case open.

My question is:

What is the official way to permanently disable SecureXL in R81.10 and R81.20?

I have already test the following:

1)  Disable SecureXL in the fwstart script.
      $FWDIR/bin/fwstart
            $CPDIR/bin/cpprod_util FwSetSecureXL 0 --> disable SecureXL permanently
    
     
      >>> This causes SecureXL to be set to the "not init" (see picture) state and the firewall does not work at all.

2) Disable SecureXL via crontab at boot and script
       #!/bin/sh
       sleep 60
       source /etc/profile.d/CP.sh
       /opt/CPsuite-R80.30/fw1/bin/fwaccel off > /dev/null 2>&1     
       exit
       >>> As a result, SecureXL will work for about 80 seconds until it is turned off.
              For the 80 seconds, there may be a malfunction of the operation.

3) Disable SecureXL via Boot-Script:
       echo "fwaccel off" >> /etc/init.d/cpboot
       >>> As a result, SecureXL will work for about 20 seconds until it is turned off.
              For the 20 seconds, there may be a malfunction of the operation.

4) In R80.10 and below, SecureXL can be permanently disabled through the CPconfig utility. See sk41397
       >>> Is therefore also not a solution for R81.10/R81.20

Heiko,

This is not directly a response (answer) to your post rather a related public service announcement of sorts for others reading from elsewhere.

Disclaimer:
In general disabling SecureXL permanently is NOT supported.

For the typical scenario if disabling SecureXL temporarily resolves an issue it is a bug and should be taken with TAC for investigation.
