Hello everyone,

I updated to a custom firmware the 200H to check a software upgrade, so I was able to reboot it manually via Nebula Configurator. Well done.

My question is related to time needed for reboot, is it normal to see the firewall offline for about 12-14 minutes?

Thanks a lot

    Hi @GiuseppeR ,

    There is no definitive answer to this question, as it depends on your network and firewall configuration.

    If there are multiple settings, it may take 5-7 minutes for the USG FLEX200H to come online in Nebula after firmware upgrade/ reboot. For simpler configurations, it can take around 2-3 minutes.

    In your screenshot, the first offline instance is due to a firmware upgrade, while we believe the second offline instance occurred because you manually rebooted the firewall.
