Dual/Triple Wan / UTM Home can manage failover with multiple WAN connexion ?

TheDark

Hi,

 

I would like to know if Sophos UTM Home is able to manage 2 or 3 WAN ISP connection (all flow is coming from Ethernet cable).

I have three connexion : ADSL, Fiber (FFTH) and LTE 4G.

I would like to have failover scenario like this, if FFTH is down > it use ADSL, if ADSL & FFTH are down  > LTE4G, if FFTH is UP, return from ADSL or LTE connexion to use it.

Does it can be possible ?

 

Best Regards.

    Is that 3 ethernet cables coming in or just one?

    If one cable, it can be achieved with vlans and a managed switch in front of the UTM.

    If three physical cables, you will obviously need three physical interfaces (either on the UTM or on the managed switch above)

    And yes, it can do it and you can get fairly creative with it using multipath rules etc.

    Hello Louis,

     

    It's three physical cables, but as you say, i just have two LAN connexion, so i need at least 4 port (x3 for WAN, x1 for LAN).

    So i need to purchase a 1Gb or 10Gb PCIe card, does it exist a list of compliant NIC hardware with Sophos UTM Home Ed. ?

     

    Many thks.

    You could do it with a small managed switch and vlans. Alternatively, you could get a 4 port gigabit pcie card if your UTM is on a server or virtual.

    Either way, you will need 4 ports minimum

    Hi,

    Any suggestion about a Vendor Name/or reference for a dual 10Gbe RJ45 PCIE 3.0 Card compliant with Sophos ?

    I think about 10Gbe when my FFTH will be update my bandwidth to gigabyte.

    Best Regards

    Wow. Can't help you there. I'm not even sure if a UTM could cope with 10gbe although I'm sure the OS etc could with the right hardware.

    We must be in the dark ages here, because we purely use 10gb for our storage networks and Cisco 10gb switches with SFP modules ain't cheap.

    A 1gb point to point ain't cheap either......

    So sorry, can't help there....
