I have searched through CheckPoint's knowledge base and can't find anything pertaining to a problem we're experiencing.
We are running CheckPoint NG fp 3 on Nokias. We have a large number of contractors on site that connect to their corporate network via an SSL VPN solution. The firewall rule is built (and has been for a year) and works fine. However, every single day at least 2 or 3 times, every contractor looses their connection at the same time. They have persued the problem with their company but it appears that only this site is loosing the connection. Now we're investigating our firewall as the possible problem.
We were thinking maybe the connections table on the firewall is getting full and dropping the oldest sessions (we use the default of 25000)? Does anyone have any advise or experience with this?
Thank you in advance for any information!!
Chris
