SRX5308 , Maximum Entries Inbound Services

Model: Netgear ProSafe VPN Firewall - FVS338

Firmware: Primary V 1.6.47  Secondary V 1.6.43

Is there a limit to the number of inbound service rules?  I have entered 28 inbound service rules and the last three that I added don't work.

Would updating the firmware fix this issue?

Thanks

Hi wslozak,

 

Welcome to our community!

 

It seems that your firmware is too old. I suggest you to upgrade the firmware one step at a time, not upgrading it directly to the latest firmware as it may cause to be brick.

 

You may check the firmware here.

I haven't done any of the firmware updates because I don't want to mess thing up.

Could you provide me with a step by step process to accomplish this?

Backup Setting

Download all Firmware update (unzip)

Run each Firmware update

 

My concern is: IMPORTANT! In some cases, such as a major upgrade, you may need to erase the configuration and manually reconfigure your router after upgrading it. Refer to the Release Notes included with the software to find out if you need to reconfigure the router.

 

In order to manually reconfigure the router, I should take screen shots of the Services and Rules - would I need anything else?

I reviewed the release notes and updating from Version 1 to Version 2 and Version 2 to Verion 3 performs a facotry reset.  What settings do I need to save to update after the factory reset?

Thanks...

@wslozak,

 

That's a very good idea. Take a screenshots of all the settings that you've applied in the SRX5308. Even if the config file won't work on the latest firmware, you will still have a copy of the configuration. Inbound Rules, WAN IP, Secondary WAN IPs, LAN IPs, etc.

 

Regards,
