Sophos Firewall OS v19.5 MR3 is Now Available

The adoption rate of our new Sophos Firewall v19.5 firmware continues to be our fastest ever, with the vast majority of Sophos Firewalls now running the latest release.

We are pleased to announce the availability of our third maintenance update for v19.5. Sophos Firewall OS v19.5 MR3 adds several important performance, reliability, stability and security fixes.

What’s New in SFOS v19.5 MR3

Updated SSD firmware for select models:

  • Among the fixes, this release includes updated SSD firmware for select SSD models within the XGS 2100, XGS 2300, XGS 3100, XGS 3300 and XGS 4300 to optimize performance and reliability.

Sophos ZTNA Gateway integration into Sophos Firewall (Coming Soon):

  • This release includes support for our upcoming release of Sophos ZTNA Gateway integration into Sophos Firewall that will make ZTNA deployments easier than ever.  If you have remote workers who need access to systems or applications behind the firewall, ZTNA makes it super easy and secure, and the integrated ZTNA gateway in Sophos Firewall means you don’t need to deploy anything additional on your network to support ZTNA secure access.  This new ZTNA gateway capability will be enabled for early access as part of Sophos ZTNA on Sophos Central in September. Please stay tuned for an announcement on this topic.

Issues resolved:

  • Resolves 65+ important performance, reliability, stability and security fixes.

  • After the upgrade DHCP option dhcp_magic_ip(234) has disappeared (already in MR-2 and no fix in MR-3 for that...).
    It is actually the most commonly used option ...

    Otherwise I have tested MR-3 with the following devices (in bigger deployments) and so far so good:

    XGS3100, XGS2100, SD-RED-20, SD-RED60, APX530.

    DHCP Option 234 is a Sophos specific Wireless DHCP Option. So not "most used option" in a greater sense. 

    But it is not a predefined object. You have to create it on your firewall, if you need it. If you use central wireless, it does not need to exist anymore. 

    And if you created it, it should not disappear (checked one firewall, it is still there, after creation a while ago).
