Devices lost connection?

Opened the Cloud Gateway app earlier today, and it asked me to re-register my device. From the app- I can see my phone, and many others are still registered, but, after spot-checking 5 or 10 users, they are all experiencing the same issue across both android and IOS.

Whatever happened- occured in the last 18 hours.

Are you using local Splunk accounts or AD/LDAP/SSO accounts? Did your password expire? This has happened to me.

LDAP Accounts. Passwords did not expire or change.

We literally added the devices to Splunk yesterday, played with them for a bit, confirmed everything was working... And, today, all of the devices need to be re-registered.

Hi Eric,

We've seen situations where if Splunk has high latency or other connection interruption with the LDAP server that it reports to SCG that the users credentials are invalid. At that point the correct thing to do is unregister the device. You're not the only customer who's reported this issue and we're working on a solution.

Ok- excellent, as long as the issue is known. I am still treating this product as a beta.
