Known Affected Versions:
12.1.3, 12.1.3.1, 12.1.3.2, 12.1.3.3, 12.1.3.4, 12.1.3.5, 12.1.3.6, 12.1.3.7, 12.1.4, 12.1.4.1, 12.1.5, 12.1.5.1, 12.1.5.2, 12.1.5.3, 12.1.6

Opened: Feb 28, 2018

Severity: 4-Minor

Symptoms

SNMP OIDs related to Network Access VPN tunnel or connectivity traffic are not updated if compression is not enabled. However, the definitions for connectivity traffic make it seem like they should be updated.

Impact

Confusion and graphs that don't seem to show the expected traffic.

Conditions

1. Create an access policy with Network Access resource (no compression enabled). Also, connectivity profile with no compression. 2. Assign this to a virtual server. 3. Establish a VPN tunnel, and download a large file. 4. Compare the SNMP OID values before and after this large file download via VPN tunnel.

Workaround

Turn on compression to see the stats updated.

Fix Information

None
