Cyberoam in the mix

Hey guys,

Before I start buying any hardware for my UTM build.  I have to ask, I saw that back in February Sophos purchased cyberoam.  At the time their was a  blog post mentioning the strong possibility of a long term integration.

I am excited for the idea of better integration and more robust features, I am just curious if their is anything known at this time that would affect a new UTM build.  ie.  If 16gb of RAM would be better as compared to the current recommended minimum of 8gb, due to some new, soon to be introduced feature.

I just thought I would double check before purchasing my hardware.

Thanks,

Scott (ftballpack)

    get as much ram as you can afford...with the option to upgrade later.  unless you are a mega install 8 will be plenty just make sure your build has the option to double that if needed in the future..[:)]

  • Buy a SG (the new line) Sophos UTM appliance; this is basically the same hardware as the newer gen Cyberoam boxes, so I would expect any future release to be able to work on either type of appliance.
