Hello, I have connected two locations using IPSEC and Wireguard. They access each other’s printers and drives.
I have a Synology on both sides and have been backing up from one location to the other overnight for about two years. However, this has not been working for several days now, and I cannot find the problem. I hope someone here can help me. I can ping the other Synology from both Synology devices. I connected to the Synology via SSH for this purpose. However, the devices can no longer be found using Hyperbackup. The firewalls are disabled on the Synology devices, and I cannot find anything in IPFIRE either. Does anyone have any ideas?
and i’m sorry for your issues, but as simple rule of thumb, if Ipsec and wireguard are working for most of the other devices and services… probably the issue might not be the IPFire installation?
What’s changed in these few days? On both firewalls and synology devices!
I’m really much more familiar with the “other big name in consumer NASes”, QNAP, and since several years there’s a firewall application on top of the “simplest” security features on some services or packages.
So it seems really more likely that it’s not IpFire the issue, but something else…
Hello, I just can’t verify it. I can’t imagine that something happened to the Synologys on both sides. Samba continues to work without any problems, and I’m currently backing up using this method. Since IPFire recently underwent an update, there may be a new feature here that could explain this.
A firmware update for the Synologys was released on 7/25, and everything has been working perfectly since then.
I think the version you’re mentioning is 7.2.2-72806-4; not the latest, but whatever, if it’s not broken don’t fix it .
this says “Ipfire is doing good” in my opinion.
Unless on ipfire you have specific firewall rules for traffic among these two devices, i’d suggest to look into your NASes for troubleshooting. I’d put my bets on network subnets and traffic rules for packages or services.
