CISCO FIREPOWER NGIPS POLICY WARNING ERROR

Hi,

We are managing our FTD devices via FMC. for one of policy attached to one of IPS I get below warning.

"This rule uses an interface object that contains no defined object"

I get this warning every time i deploy something from FMC to FTD devices, any help on how to resolve it?

@binitrai one of the rules in the policy is referencing an interface object, but there are no interfaces assigned to that object - so therefore the rule will not work as intended. You need to amend the rule to remove the interface object or assign an interface(s) to the interface object.

Hi Rob,

I did check, i have two interface objects in source and they both contain two interfaces in each not sure why i am getting this. i also removed and added interface object in src but no luck yet.

Did you specifically check your IPS policy (not the Access Control Policy) since the error is reported there?

This error is with respect to access control policy not ips intrusion policy

Hi All,

Issue resolved by restarting TOMCAT process on FMC.
