"fw logswitch" command on Log Server / Domain Log Server fails with "Failed to connect" error in the following scenario:

• Topology:
  
  • [ Log Server , Real IP) --- [ NAT device ] --- [ MGMT Server ]
• Configuration:
  
  • Log Server is defined in SmartDashboard with its NATed IP address
  • NAT device hides the Real IP address of Log Server

Scheduled logswitch on Log Server (configured in SmartDashboard) succeeds.

Running the logswitch under debug shows that "fw logswitch" command tries to connect to the NATed IP Address defined in the Log Server's object instead of the Real IP address of the Log Server machine:
