Jason 84 Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Will be anxious to hear your results. Not ready to take plunge from UTM 9.4 yet. Will be an undertaking to start my configuration from scratch. Link to post Share on other sites
pcdoc 114 Posted November 12, 2016 Author Share Posted November 12, 2016 I spun it up quickly in a VM and it looks quite nice. Planning to try it properly as soon as i get a moment - just need to work out why the WAN vSwitch is causing the cable modem to lock onto another MAC rather than the first VM DHCP request... I think once you start using it you will find it quite nice especially if you have used the prior version of XG. Not only do i run it at home we have have finished 2 separate deployments and are working on the 3rd at work. I obviously really like it. Link to post Share on other sites
nrf 135 Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 seems you have my interest piqued. I have seen a navigation article and one on firewall rules. have you gone to the point of malware and ad blocking without interfering with services like netflix? Link to post Share on other sites
pcdoc 114 Posted November 13, 2016 Author Share Posted November 13, 2016 seems you have my interest piqued. I have seen a navigation article and one on firewall rules. have you gone to the point of malware and ad blocking without interfering with services like netflix? I did cover a little bit in my rules article and it is added to the chart I did but basically Netflix works great with all the filtering in place so there is no issue there but antivirus still Has to be disabled for iOS/android devices. What I did which works well is create a rule which has all the filtering in place but antivirus disabled for the iOS/android devices. To me the main thing is now the filtering does block these devices which used to be an issue on some of the earlier versions. There are other features such as exceptions which I have not tried but truthfully once you set the rule you will not have to worry. Here is the chart rule: http://thedocsworld.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Network-User-Rules.jpg It is the first entry. Link to post Share on other sites
Jason 84 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Been waiting for V18 but may have no choice but to migrate from Sophos UTM. Simply now have too many devices. Operating at 110% of allowable IPs. Was a matter of time. Link to post Share on other sites

Jason 84 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Was thinking of waiting until V17 release? Does OpenVPN work in V16?Wasn’t sure whether V16 updates to V17 beta to V17 final release also? Link to post Share on other sites
pcdoc 114 Posted September 17, 2017 Author Share Posted September 17, 2017 There is a native VPN client that is based on OpenVPN that works great. I use it every day. It ties nicely into the firewall rules and is more part of the system. OpenVPN clients can also use it and it works with all mobile apps. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Jason 84 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Saw they also just released the V17 beta will an extensive list of bug fixes. Looks promising. Not sure when final release is planned. Am going to start snapping screen shots of my current config in Sophos UTM as it has changed quite a bit since I’ve last done this. Ramping up....

nrf 135 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 for the xg 'home' version, do they support x86? I used to not worry about this issue until I lost my microserver... thanks! Link to post Share on other sites
