Hello nice to meet you

Recently, a customer's firewall has lost its service connection due to an increase in resources for an unknown reason.

And I don't know if it is related to resource increase or service disconnection, but the message below will be generated every time there is an issue.

I saw something similar to this in 'sk167939', but the customer is a completely different version from the DB version specified in sk.

In addition, TAC said that there are no bugs in DB versions other than those specified in SK.

I am wondering if that message has anything to do with increasing resource usage.

Symptoms and messages are the same for the two devices specified below.

* Model: SG23800

* Version: R80.40 (VRRP)

* Blade: Firewall / IPS

* CPU: 48Core (H/T on)

* Memory: 32G

* Model: SG15600

* Version: R80.10 (VRRP)

* Blade: Firewall / IPS

* CPU: 32 Core(H/T on)

* Memory: 16G

PS This is the status information of the customer firewall at the time of the failure.

1. From 07:44 to 07:47, cpview data did not accumulate for about 3 minutes.

2. The cpu and memory usage of 47 minutes is very high compared to 44 minutes.

3. At that time, aggressive aging was activated.

This is your second post for the matter. Update your IPS and push policy. If the issue remains, please raise a case with TAC

In accordance with the recommendations of TAC and SK, the IPS DB has been updated to the latest.

However, the problem continues to occur intermittently.

I need to know Whether the occurrence of that message is affecting the rise of firewall resources.

I opened a case to the TAC and it took more than a month, but the TAC is no sense of cause of this problem.

Presumably you've shared more detail with TAC as it's difficult to assist without knowing things such as installed JHF levels etc.

OS Version: R80.40

Hotfix: Take 89

OS Version: R80.10

Hotfix: Take 279

The same symptom is seen on both firewalls.

I don't know what trigger to increase cpu and memory at that time.

I'm getting an unusual message like'ips_gen_dyn_log: malware_policy_global_send_log() failed'.
