  • Hi James, Again, thanks for the input! I have been thru the doc many times and implemented everything in it. Unfortunately, I seem to be a unicorn with a locally managed firebox as well as using Authpoint which seems to limit the usefulness of everything except geofencing. I cannot use block failed logins feautre in…
  • HI James, Thanks for jumping in. in this thread [above] on Sept. 19th, i asked for help blocking unwanted login attempts. you sent me to the same link previously. I have a locally managed firebox and use Authpoint. You mentioned to me on that same day that in this scenario, I cannot use Authpoint blocking because this…
  • "Work is being done to add features to what is effectively brute-force prevention to this and other features based on current security/attack trends." Have we made any progress on these possible added features? I am getting hammered on a regular basis. I am constantly manually adding ip addresses from Authpoint logs to…
  • Is my case of using locally managed Firebox with Authpoint unique? Not sure why my setup is an outlier.
  • Hi James, I have set this up today, but while reading the https://www.watchguard.com/help/docs/fireware/12/en-US/whats-new_Fireware_v12-10-4.pptx powerpoint, it seems this does not solve the SSLVPN failed login issue??? Here is what I am referring to, it is on slide #5. "This feature does not block failed login attempts…
  • So, I am hoping I am reading this wrong, but it seems to me that this funcionality is not going to help with a firebox that is locally managed and uses Authpoint. Is that the case? I am having to manually collect IP addresses and add them to the blocked list every few days. It seems I will be forced to make our Fireboxes…
  • James, thank you for getting involved, I greatly appreciate it! After we got the firebox reconnected to the cloud, there was more work to do. I had to remove my authpoint resource and then add it back to get AuthPoint MFA working again. Then, since I was asked to re-add the resource with different settings, I had to enable…
  • Yeah, i got up to another tier, but haven't heard a word in over 24 hours. Not happy with the current situation!
  • This did not solve the problem. My firebox disconnected from the Watchguard cloud which watchguard support thinks is why the ssl vpn cannot authenticate using authpoint. Watchguard support is having a tough time getting it to reconnect to the cloud. This is a locally managed firebox connected to the cloud for logging and…
  • Thank you sir! I just successfully tried on my android phone with OpenVPN app. After successful login, it asked for the "p" for push just like the SSLVPN app does, and it pushed to my Authpoint app successfully. After that I was logged into the vpn. I am not sure why I thought it wouldn't work. Thanks again. Rob
