Hi, I have the SSL VPN that does not work well. It works 1 time out of 10.
The firewall is the latest version (4.31) as well as the client secuextender (4.0.2). Access is via an AD account. I tried however also with local accounts with the same result, so I would exclude a problem of access to active directory. This is the LOG:

the account Ascii log successful but at 10:00:40 I received the errore "Can't get authentication token" ! What's is authentication token ?
the strange thing is that maybe after one day everything works regularly, tested even for 10 consecutive hours of open and working tunnel. Then just close the ssl vpn and retentive, I constantly receive this error.

    Hi,

      I'm experiencing the same issue on a ZyWall USG 20 firmware 3.30 BDQ8.
    Will the upgrade to 3.30(BDQ9)C0 solve this problem?

     Thanks in advance.

    Enrico

    Hi @Enrico

    The behavior is the same as the one mentioned above by StefanoP; I'll attach a log for you to check, just in case.
    The newest firmware available didn't solve the issue.

    Well, the new Thread seems to cover a different issue.
    I have the "Can't get authentication token" problem an my USG210 running on 4.32(AAPI.0)ITS-WK48-r86397 .
    It there anything newer which fixes this?
