# sk185077 - Web API and CLI allocate duplicate Dynamic IP values after Security Management upgrade

| Products | Security Management Server |
| Versions | R82.10, R82, R82.20 |

## Symptoms

- * After an upgrade of the Security Management Server, the Dynamic IP (DAIP) counter is out of sync with the next available internal placeholder address.

  As a result, new objects that use a dynamic address receive duplicate or out-of-sequence DAIP values.

  This issue can affect object creation through:
  * Management API
  * Management CLI
  * Web SmartConsole

  In this scenario, Windows SmartConsole continues to assign the next DAIP value correctly, while the Web-based path assigns incorrect values.
* Observed Behavior:

  * Before the upgrade, the DAIP counter advances normally.
  * After the upgrade, new objects receive DAIP values from the start of the internal range.
  * Policy installation fails due to duplicate object data.
* Example error during policy installation:

  `ERROR: Duplicate keys <...> in table gw_properties`
* To reproduce with the management CLI:

  Run this command on the Security Management Server / Domain Management Server:

  `mgmt_cli add simple-gateway name "GW-1" dynamic-address true --format json --session-id`
* Running internal database synchronization tools may complete successfully but does not resolve the issue.

## Cause

In R82, a software condition in the Web-based allocation path desynchronized the internal DAIP counter during or after the upgrade of the Security Management Server. When this occurred, the API/CLI and Web SmartConsole path allocated DAIP values from an incorrect counter, which caused duplicate DAIP assignments and policy-installation failures.
