Mobile Security Gateway External Host Address

Hi guys
I'm having problems entering my external host address in the Mobile Security Gateway. The address is valid and pointing to my dmz reverse proxy, what am I missing? The address is written without https:// and as subdomain.domain.com.

After a whole lot of trial and error it turns out that the domain-name cannot start with a number. Our external POC-domain starts with a 1. Numbers within a domain-name don't seem to matter though.
I can manually dig into the database and change the value to our domain (and see the correct value in the Mobile Gateway Settings), but enrollment fails anyway and I guess it's not a supported way.
Hi JFinnhult,
Many thanks for the posts. Just to confirm: is this with Symantec Mobile Security 7.2 MR1?
With thanks and best regards,

Hi Mick2009
Yes, this is true for 7.2 MR1.

Thanks Jonas!
I keep an eye on https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/security/forums/mobile-security for SMS 7.2 questions. Glad I spotted this here.
That's not a known issue (several are listed in the Release Notes....
I can't say that I have ever tried creating a MSG on a domain name that begins with a number, though.
What was listed in the Altiris logs? Any errors there?
And did you try with an IP specified, rather than a FQDN? Did that work?
Here's a KB about MSG's that may be interesting...
Final question: what time and date formats are in use in this environment? The initial (non-MR1 release) had some trouble with European-formatted dates.
Cheers in advance for some more details!
Mick
With thanks and best regards,
Mick
