Hello Team,

As i guessed the issue is with the communication channels in the sensor.

Sftunnel is the main communication channel between the FMC and sensor.

Here you can see the service is down and thus you cannot push upgrade as well as cannot reapply the AC policy.

Please try restarting the service by elevate as root user.

pmtool enablebyid sftunnel

Verify the status once again.

If its still down, please try resatrting the same.

pmtool restartbyid sftunnel

Hi,

What hardware model is this ?

By error are you referring to the green light on the warning icon (Triangle with exclamation) ?

Thanks,

Pujita

model 7100,yes- what is mean -  green light on the warning icon?

I have Fatal RPC Error when i try to apply device changes.What it is mean? 

I have Defense Center running software version: 5.4.1.7

And if I login to Sensor I see Sourcefire Linux OS v5.3.0 (build 63). May be it is problem? How I can update sensor if it posible? Thank you!

Hello,

I see you are using FP7000 series on v5.3.x and the same is managed via FMC running 5.4.1.7. I see a compatibility issue here and we should first fix this issue. 

Please upgrade to 5.4.0.6 or higher, in order to manage via FMC running 5.4.1.7. 

Attaching compatibility table for your reference.

Yes, you will need to update it from 5.3.0 to 5.4.0.6

The upgrade path will be:

1: Upgrade to 5.3.0

2: Upgrade to 5.3.0.1

3: Upgrade to 5.4.0

4: Upgrade to 5.4.0.6

Ok! I try and see in firesight that i have version -5.3.0.3. And I find that the system offers me to update the device -Sourcefire 3D Device S3 Patch 5.3.0.8-15. I try to update but it is faild.

Now I download update  Sourcefire 3D Device S3 Patch 5.3.0.4 and trying to install it.

Unfortunately I have problems! (My version 5.3.0.3)

1.If i try ti install updates From FireSight - it is faild.

2.If i try ti upload updates from archive (5.3.0.4-9.sh)- Upload failed: Update package is corrupt.

3.I try to upload 5.4.0-763 - is uploaded and I try to install it - it is faild too.

Hello Team,

It looks like some communication issues are there.

To verify it can you try reapplying the policies once to see if it will be successful or not. If its not successful , please check if there is any RPC timeouts are there or connectivity issues exist.

O! There is no problem with connections beetween FireSight and Sensor. both see each other. But they in difference vlan. May be problem with it?

Does the policy reapply was fine ?

If you about access policy - no ( But i have emty access policy. hardly it is a problem.

Hello Team,

Can you see if the patch got pushed to the device by checking /var/sf/Upgrade Directory of the desired version.

If it didnt even get pushed verify the following from sensor CLI :-

pmtool status |grep sftunnel

pmtool status |grep SFData
