  • Hi,

    heartbeat is not available to home users, it is paid for licence addition and a security feature. It provides a method of managing your devices access to the firewall rules and hence to the internet. Stops unauthorised devices from using your internet connection. You can achieve nearly the same function with fixed IP addressing and clientless users and clientless uaergroups though you don't get reports on failed heartbeat.

  • In theory, you could purchase te EP License as well as a home user. Not Sophos Home - Instead the payed version, it should work with Sophos XG Home.
