Home License option

rrosson

I currently downloaded XG and installed it as a VM to attempt to populate as much as possible by hand into XG. When I logged in I noticed that my license is only for 30 days. I am aware that tools for migration from UTM-9 are coming mid-2016 but I am bumping my 50 IP mark on a regular basis and was going to attempt to manually populate a XG VM with as much as possible, create a backup, install XG on my UTM 9 hardware (Software Install) and import backup that I created from the VM, hoping this would work and with final downtime.

TIA

    Hi Ron, did you request an eval or home use version? Installer is the same, but the serial number is not. Licenses are tied to the serial number, so you won't get a home use license if you install with an eval license. There's not any way yet to switch a serial number to home use. Check here to get a home use license/serial number: www.sophos.com/.../sophos-xg-firewall-home-edition.aspx

    All I did is hit the activation button. Did I miss something?

    Goes through the same information and the first Item on the list is:

    1. You should receive an email shortly with your evaluation serial number. (Please note that it can take several minutes to arrive).

    From the e-mail I got::

    Thank you for your interest in Sophos XG Firewall.

    You are now ready to begin your 30-day free trial.

    Also the getting started link give you a Sophos formatted "Sorry" Page

    I also have the issue with the getting started section which i presume has the password needed during setup. Also is there a difference between the XG Firewall or XG UTM? are they the same product ? what is the successor to UTM 9? offers free home license?
