Troubleshooting a Connection

If a connectivity test fails, check the possible causes below:

HTTP test

The Gateway requires that firewalls allow HTTP and HTTPS traffic outbound to the applianceupdate.clearswift.com address. Check the settings for any company firewalls between the Gateway and the Internet to ensure that this traffic is allowed.
Check that the HTTP proxy settings are correct. See Managing HTTP Proxy Settings for more information.

Check the configuration of any static routes that have been configured. See Network configuration for more information.

Check that you entered the correct IP address and port number for the SMTP servers. See Specifying Routing of Email for more information.
Check that your SMTP servers are running.
Check the settings on your company firewall between the Gateway and the SMTP servers. Firewalls must allow SMTP traffic from the Gateway to the SMTP server on the defined port number.
Check if the SMTP server has been configured to block SMTP connections from the IP address of the Gateway. This will cause the test to fail.

Check the configuration of any static routes that have been configured. See Network configuration for more information.

Check that you have configured the correct details for the FTP server. See Backing up the System for more information.
Check the settings on your company firewall between the Gateway and the FTP server. Firewalls must allow SMTP traffic from the Gateway to the FTP server on the defined port number. See Firewall Ports for more information.
Check the configuration of any static routes that have been configured. See Network configuration for more information.
