I need help on this issue from SecurePlatform Experts:
 
 I have SPLAT enforcement module with
 two interfaces, Internal and External.
 This SPLAT box is being managed by a
 Provider-1 SPLAT (manager+container).
 Everything is running NGx R61 with
 HFA_01.  Everything is running
 on EVAL license.
 
 Internal interface has an IP of 
 10.100.109.2/24 with the ClusterXL IP 
 to be 10.100.109.1.  The External IP 
 address is 129.174.1.23/24 with the 
 ClusterXL IP is 129.174.1.22.  
 Anti-spoofing is defined properly.
 Under the global properties, I have
 automatic ARP, nat on the destination,
 etc...By the way, even though I only
 have a single firewall, I setup the firewall
 with ClusterXL in Active/Active in Unicast
 with the intention that I will add
 another firewall into clusterXL next week.
 
 I have a very simple rule:
 Any  Any  Accept log
 
 I have a linux host behind the Internal
 interface with IP 10.100.109.12 and
 it is NATted to 129.174.1.12.  Host
 10.100.109.12 has its default gateway
 as 10.100.109.1
 
 Once I push the policy, hosts residing
 on the External CAN ping the host 129.174.1.12.
 So far so good.
 
 However, if I do "cpstop;cpstart" on the
 SPLAT enforcement module, hosts residing on 
 the External network CAN NOT ping host
 129.174.1.12.  Several attempts to push
 the policy did not sovle it.  When 
 I do "fw ctl arp" on the SPLAT box, I see 
 this:
 
 [EM-SPLAT-1-P]# fw ctl arp
 (129.174.1.12) at 00-a0-c9-e1-05-b8 interface 129.174.1.23
 (129.174.1.11) at 00-a0-c9-e1-05-b8 interface 129.174.1.23
 [EM-SPLAT-1-P]#
 
 It means that my static NAT is correct but
 hosts on the External network CAN NOT ping
 the host 129.174.1.12.  The only way to fix
 this is to REBOOT the SPLAT box.
 
 Is this normal behavior for SPLAT enforcement module?
 I've never this with Nokia IP appliances.
 
 Can someone clarify this?


I've another identical setup with NG-AI R55 with HFA_20
and I have NO issues with this whatsoever.  Static NAT
still works fine after "cpstop;cpstart" or "cprestart" on the
Enforcement Modules
