Where is V18 at?

Hi,

this request for an update on progress is for those of us that do not have access top partners/resllers.

Would some-one in the know who is allowed to provide progress on v18 please add to this thread.

I am not after guesses or conjecture, but real timelines (give or take a month).

Ian

  • Hi,

     

    is it possible to use a Sophos XG with an EAP Firmware in Production, or is this dangerous?

    Are EAP versions prone to have security Flaws that could be a problem in an production environment?

    Security flaws are rare.  Bugs in an early EAP is what you should be concerned about, or features that are not quite ready.  Later EAPs are much more production ready.
     
    It is not uncommon, however, to clone the production machine onto another.  Then upgrade the copy.  You can play with the copy as much as you want, if you gain trust move more traffic to the copy.  Or swap it in knowing you can swap it out again.  Of course if you need continuous logs and statistics this isn't a good idea.
