Testing connectivity between the on-premises appliances and cloud Endpoint Security (HX) servers

Prev Next
To test connectivity between the on-premises Endpoint Security (HX) appliances and cloud Endpoint Security (HX) servers using the CLI:
  1. Log in to the on-premises Endpoint Security (HX) appliance using the SSH protocol and the IP address or hostname of the appliance's management interface.

  2. Enable CLI configuration mode.

    hostname > enable
    hostname # configure terminal
  3. Telnet to the cloud Endpoint Security (HX) server on port 80:

    hostname # telnet <hostname-or-IPaddress> 80

    where <hostname-or-IPaddress> is the host name or public IP address of the cloud Endpoint Security (HX) appliance.

  4. In the output from this command, verify that telnet succeeds in making a connection.

    Trying <IPaddress-or-host-name>...
    Connected to <IPaddress-or-host-name>.
    Escape character is '^]'.
  5. Repeat these steps with the on-premises HXD (DMZ) appliance, if there is one.
