v18 EAP2. Anyone have a clue when ? Because I have quit testing EAP1 ...

Big_Buck

Ok

I concluded it was useless for me to continue testing EAP1.  First because I am on the impression things are simply not working.  We are testing something "in the pipe" which, to my judgement, means before EAP.

And there's the thing that many - including me - had half of their posts deleted by moderators with no appropriate judgment.  It has become counter-productive.  What's the point of testing hours just to have our comments deleted in the end ?

    It's funny how it is always the same people who complain about a concept they seemingly can't comprehend: Beta testing. It's always the same when a new EAP arrives: People download the very first version, slap it onto their machines and expect a production ready system. And then the endless complaining begins. 

    EAPs are supposed to be broken. And you are supposed to break them. You are however not supposed to use them in production. Deal with it. Read up on what it actually means to use beta software. And stop complaining. It doesn't help. Anyone. At all. 

    That said, I can see why Sophos deletes irrelevant posts that don't add any value to the tests.

    You're right, it's Beta testing and we are currently on EAP 1, there's EAP 2 and 3 to go before GA.


    I've also complained before about v18 EAP 1throughput, the main reason of it being slow was IPS, it's currently 1/3 the speed i has getting on v17.5.x.

    But, I has also wrong before - I've made a post saying TLS/SSL Inspection has slower than the Web Proxy (HTTPS Decrypt), which is wrong.

    TLS/SSL Inspection is currently much, much faster than Web Proxy.

     

    For the people that didn't watched the 14/NOV webcast, EAP 2 is coming next week.

    I'll be waiting to know what has been fixed, or if there's any IPS performance improvement on it.
