Do any users recommend upgrading to V17?

GaryChancellor over 7 years ago

I have two sites with Sophos XG135 (SFOS 16.05.8 MR-8) that are stable and running an IPSEC VPN between them. I haven't converted them to RED.

I read several forum issues with V17 and bugs likely fixed in V17 MR-2 coming soon. Should I just wait for MR-2?

Regards,

Gary

Hi,

We are having lot of issues with IPSEC VPN in v17 and 17 MR1.We advice you to wait for MR2,look at the feedback and then upgrade.

We didn't have any issues with SSL inspection though.

We had to dump IPSEC site to site VPNs with 17.0.1 and use RED, actually a blessing in disguise as once set up it is much better, on a transcontinental link anyway, can't comment on shorter ones where IPSEC might be okay.

Thanks. I have considered moving to RED. It wasn't supported when I first set everything up and I haven't had an opportunity to go back and play with it. I lack confidence on XG. I don't know if it is the product or my ignorance, but I am never quite sure if it is going to work as I want it to.

Regards,

Gary
