DynFi Manager and Firewall Forums

Hi.

I'm starting the DynFi deployment process to get it up and running, but I'm having a dilemma trying to update DynFi.

I've been trying to perform this update for some time, but the process starts and at a certain point a "TimeOut" error appears in a certain package, or even "TimeOut" when trying to initialize the process, as per the error below.

I'm trying to carry out the process through four different internet operators and only on two of them can I start the process, even if a "TimeOut" error occurs.

Is there any procedure that can perform the process manually? Or is there some other repository that can be used? I don't know if it's related, but I'm trying to carry out the process from Brazil and I could possibly be facing a routing problem between operators.

I appreciate any kind of assistance. Thank you in advance.

Below, event related to TimeOut when starting the update process, as well as traceroute, starting from the firewall.

Hi.

I managed to get around the problem, I may be facing an intermittency problem in connections from Brazil to the website packages.dynfi.com through the internet operators I have, as they lose many packets during ICMP tests. After several attempts, I managed to carry out the update process using “SHELL” via SSH, pointing the connection to an alternative proxy in another country, using the following commands:
I hope to help other people who are having this problem.
Greetings.

Thanks Leandro for this tip.
