---

When using the AMF Application Proxy function of AlliedWare Plus (excluding TQR), register the AMF Master (proxy node) in AMF Security 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 Manage (AMF Application Proxy Whitelist) and Blocking with AMF Application Proxy (AMF Application Proxy Blacklist).

When the AMF Master is registered with AMF Security, 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".

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, it may indicate issues such as misconfiguration of AMF nodes on AlliedWare Plus devices (excluding TQR) or AMF Security 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 configuration details of each product, refer to the Quick Tour What does AMF Security 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 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 and AMF Master (Confirm that IP communication is possible between AMF Security and AMF Master)
  
• Confirm that the IPv4 Address, user name, and password of the AMF Master registered with AMF Security are correct
  
• Confirm that the AMF Master settings registered with AMF Security 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 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
