Will my TP-Link mesh wifi work with my new XGS firewall?

Sean Rome over 2 years ago

Greetings everyone!

I run a few TP-Link Mesh wifi systems with my current UTM. It was an easy setup which required no firewall rules.

We are moving to a new XGS firewall this month.

Will my TP-Link wifi setup work fine with the new XGS firewall, or will XGS lock it down till I create a firewall and NAT rule?

Any input would be very much appreciated

Hi Sean Rome , By default, your TP-link router will get internet access once you deploy Sophos XG firewall however you can configure a separate rule for TP link router with IP or MAC base if no L3 switch…

Hi Sean Rome,

By default, your TP-link router will get internet access once you deploy Sophos XG firewall however you can configure a separate rule for TP link router with IP or MAC base if no L3 switch is connected between Sophos XG and TP-link wifi router.

Thanks and Regards

Thank you for the quick reply. I do have an un-managed Cisco switch in-between the Wifi router and the firewall
