Hi all, recently installed a new installation of R80.40 - one mgmt server, two g/ways in a cluster (clusterXL) - we have had an issue since the start retrieving IPS update, anti-bot, NTP from the passive gateway. If you switch them around then the issue remains on the passive so it's not policy. Digging around on these forums lead me to try the steps listed in sk43807 - https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Enterprise-Appliances-and-Gaia/Connectivity-issues-from-standby-...
as this appeared to help others (albeit on R80.30). Whilst it has indeed resolved the issue of the updates, time sync etc to the passive gway. An unexpected side affect is that clusterXL is not working correctly.
I also cannot now connect to the web interface of the passive node, it does not time out or error - it just hangs when attempting to connect. I have rebooted the passive gateway and it had no affect.
Output below from the cli, which is still reachable: -
