intel NUC and usb NIC

lodore
Hello,

I am thinking of buying an intel celeron dual core intel NUC to run sophos home UTM.
Does sophos UTM support USB network cards and if so is there any particular one that is recommended? 

I hope everyone is having a good weekend so far 
Thanks in advance

    I didn't try a bare metal load, but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work. ESXi doesn't virtualize the USB NICs, so they're just passed through to the UTM VM as directly connected hardware (the UTM initializes the USB device and loads the corresponding drivers).
