Opened: Sep 12, 2023

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

Policy sync fails with error "01071202:3: Number of rules in macro call (/Common/Doble-sync-fail-tst_mac_authentication_4) must be equal to the number of macro terminalouts."

Impact

Policy sync is broken.

Conditions

1)Devices should be in sync-only group. 2)The access policy should have a macro configured with terminals endings. 3)The access policy should be already synced and present on the other device. i.e problem is seen during subsequent policy syncs and not seen during the first sync. 4)The issue is seen only if macro terminal endings are deleted and then policy sync is performed.

Workaround

Delete the terminal outs even on the other device in the sync group and then perform the policy sync.
