User Guide: AMF Security mini version 2.6.1

# Displaying AMF Master connection status

When using the AMF Application Proxy function of AlliedWare Plus (excluding TQR), register the AMF Master (proxy node) in AMF Security mini via the AMF > AMF Application Proxy Settings page.
If a TQR device is included among the AMF nodes of AlliedWare Plus, "Warning" appears under "Connected". "Warning" appears under "Connected", but if the AMF Application Proxy function is configured on the TQR device, the function operates in the same way as on TQ.

> Note

> > For information on AlliedWare Plus device settings, refer to the manual for your AlliedWare Plus device or Quick Tour / What does AMF Security mini Manage (AMF Application Proxy Whitelist) and Blocking with AMF Application Proxy (AMF Application Proxy Blacklist).

When the AMF master is registered with AMF Security mini, one of "Checking", "Disconnected", "Good", "Error", or "Warning" is displayed in "Connected" on the AMF > AMF Application Proxy Settings page. Nothing is displayed when the AMF Master is not registered.

> Note

> > Refresh your web browser to view the current connection status.

The following table shows each indication of "Connected".

Table 23: Connected
Display | Description
--- | ---
Checking | This is displayed when an AMF Master is registered and the information of the AMF nodes managed by that AMF Master is acquired and confirmed. Good, Error, or Warning is displayed when information acquisition/confirmation is completed.
Disconnected | Appears when AMF Master is registered without a license registered in AMF Security mini.
Good | It is displayed that the information of the AMF node managed by the AMF Master can be successfully obtained by connecting to the AMF Master.
Error | Displayed when connection with the AMF Master could not be established.
Warning | This is displayed when connecting to an AMF Master and information on some of the AMF nodes managed by that AMF Master could not be obtained properly.

> Note

> > If Error or Warning is displayed, refer to Appendix / Displaying AMF Master connection status > Displaying Error or Warning.

## Displaying Error or Warning

If “Error” or “Warning” is displayed for the “Connected” of the AMF Master (proxy node) in AMF Security mini, it may indicate issues such as misconfiguration of AMF nodes on AlliedWare Plus devices (excluding TQR) or AMF Security mini settings.
If a TQR is included among the AMF nodes on AlliedWare Plus devices, “Warning” is displayed for the “Connection Status.” However, if the AMF Application Proxy function is configured on the TQR, the AMF Application Proxy function operates in the same way as it does on a TQ.
For the settings of each product, refer to Quick Tour / What does AMF Security mini Manage (AMF Application Proxy Whitelist) and Blocking with AMF Application Proxy (AMF Application Proxy Blacklist).
Relevant logs are also output to the System Settings > AMF Security Log page. Check these logs together with the other information.

##### Contents to check when Error is displayed

This is displayed when connection with the AMF Master registered with AMF Security mini cannot be established, so the AMF Application Proxy in general do not work properly. Check the following along with the log output on the System Settings > AMF Security Log page.

- Confirm that there is no problem in the communication path between AMF Security mini and AMF Master (Confirm that IP communication is possible between AMF Security mini and AMF Master)
- Confirm that the IPv4 Address, user name, and password of the AMF Master registered with AMF Security mini are correct
- Confirm that the AMF Master settings registered with AMF Security mini are correct

##### Contents to check when Warning is displayed

This is displayed when the information of some AMF nodes managed by the AMF Masters registered with AMF Security mini could not be obtained normally, but AMF Application Proxy does not operate on the AMF nodes for which the information was successfully obtained. For AMF nodes for which information could not be obtained properly, check the following along with the log output on the System Settings > AMF Security Log page.
If “Warning” is displayed after changing AMF Security to this version, the cause may lie with the AlliedWare Plus devices in use. Refer to the documentation for AlliedWare Plus devices as well.

- Confirm that AMF Master (Proxy Node) and AMF Member (Edge Node) settings are correct
- Ensure AMF Master and AMF Member firmware support AMF Application Proxy
