Best practice: Secondary Update location; Sophos or own library?

TRLSecurity

Hi Everyone,

I (like many others) are in the middle of upgrading our Sophos environment from V7.x to V9.5.

One thought that has occurred to me is the current "best practice" thinking when it comes to the location of  the Secondary Update location.

We currently have an internet-facing password protected WebCID as our secondary update location.  Is it best to replicate this for V9.5, or should I direct the Secondary Update location to "Sophos" and not bother with my own secondary update location?

Thoughts for and against these approaches would be gratefully appreciated.

Many thanks in advance,

Steve

    Hello Steve,

    I (like many others) are in the middle of upgrading

    ... while some others are preparing for 9.7 :smileywink:

    I'd use "Sophos" only if setting up a WebCID is not justified because the number of potential clients is very small. I was also glad to have one as secondary location (for mostly "internal" clients) when one of the management servers went belly up. Used it to redirect the clients to the new incarnation of their new management server.
