A lot of connections from SCG to devices
Our SCGs are sending a lot of ssh requests against our defined devices. The requests are stopped in our firewall.
Why? And how to change it?

Based on the document here, what you are seeing is SCG trying to reach out to the devices, and based on the device type and model, secure connect gateway automatically collects the telemetry that is required to troubleshoot an issue when it is detected.
So for SCG to work as intended, you may want to consider allowing those through the firewall.

it-hbl,
Without knowing how the devices were discovered I wouldn't be able to be certain, but they may be something like the health status requests.
Let me know how you discovered the devices and I can confirm.

@DELL-Chris H The devices where discovered/defined by installation of each device. As an example: More than 400 ssh request per 24-hours, about 5x3 tries every hour for our Powermax2500
