Which Hardware should I use ?

Hello, 

iam sorry for asking, but every thread i have read was not up date. 

 

So I would like to ask if someone can recommend some low power consuption Hardware for a Sophos XG firewall. 

 

What are the requirement to the firewall? 

- Up to 6 Users surfing 

- Web filtering

- Email (IMAP / SMTP) filtering 

- establish a ppoe Connection ( 100 / 40 Mbit) 

- VPN ( Clients to Server - up to 2 Users at the same time)

- VPN ( Side to Side - one connection)

- VLANS

 

Thanks for helping 

Mario

  • Hey Mario,

     

    The Sophos Sizing guide would suggest something like XG106 or XG115 as I wouldnt recommend the XG86

    My experience is go as big as you can afford as it gives you many more resources to activate the full stack of features and security. Have you checked out the price difference between each of them and maybe the XG210?

    We have an XG230 but replaced with XG450 due to the XG230 not handling the load we threw at it.

    Also plan for any additional sites or additional users.
