Are you trying to route between the networks? It would work technically but I would not advise it, as you are running all your traffic through the fw engine which adds latency which is not good for a SAN network.

My .1.1 network is my main network. I have .2.1 as my subnet. I currently have an hp p4300 g2 as my San, with bonded 1gb nics on the .2.1 network. I have an iscsi target to the p4300 from my file server. In the file server, I have a quad port nic, with 2 ports serving the .2.1 iscsi share, and the other 2 serving data to the .1.1 network.
Does that make sense?

I was online trying to download them and was confused between where to download each. I did get one ISO but not sure which of the above two it was. If you can link me to both, I'd like to try them out.
You can get the XG from here
Free Antivirus Tools for Windows, Mac, Android | Free Firewall and Linux AV Security Tool Downloads | Sophos
Not sure where to get the UTM now

Are you talking about UTM or XG? I just loaded up the XG virtual appliance and I don't see anything under SSL VPN (Remote Access) that would allow me to setup an OpenVPN client connection. And under SSL (Site-to-Site) it's the same situation as UTM where you must use one of two specified file formats for the config (don't have it in front of me right now or else I'd list them) but you can't use the standard .ovpn file. It seems Sophos still only supports creating site-to-site OpenVPN connections between two Sophos boxes.
I need to ability of my firewall to be setup as the client to a VPN service such as AirVPN. I currently have that ability in pfSense and Sophos' lack of support for this feature is what's held me back from using it at home.
Ah ok, I misunderstood, I thought it was the other way around. You can setup the sophos to be the server and then download the .ovpn files from the client portal
Right that I'm aware of. I use all 3 scenarios on my current pfSense box:
- Server (pfSense #1) -> Clients (my phones, laptops, etc.)
- Site-to-Site (pfSense #1 & to pfSense #2)
- Client (pfSense #1) -> Server (AirVPN servers)
cptbjorn, how did you install Sophos in a VM? The iso I downloaded for XG isn't bootable, so I'm not sure how to pass it to the VM to install.
Thanks
Does Sophos allow you to use the home license for the virtual appliance license. I was going to try that, but the home version only has the .iso download available.
Actually, I have a similar issue - When I first tried to download the Home/ Free versions of UTM & XG, they poppep a "fill in form" on the top of which was a Radio Button allowing me to choose Software vs Virtual Appliance and now when I try I dont see it. So I am wondering where I am goofing up or its stopped now, / it was on a different download from Sophos ?
If you go to Sophos.com and login by clicking on the icon in the top right that looks like a person, you should then be presented with some options under "My Account" on the left hand side. Click on Network Protection and then Download Installers and you should see the following:
I found the OVF deployment but do not know what the default password is. has anyone seen it mentioned somewhere?
