Sophos Firewall: Sophos Connect Migration script from UTM SSL VPN

Disclaimer: This information is provided as-is for the benefit of the Community. Please contact Sophos Professional Services if you require assistance with your specific environment.


Overview

This Recommended Read is in the Beta stage scripting and includes the following. 

  • Backup the old ".ovpn" configuration from SG UTM SSL VPN
  • Removes old SG UTM client
  • Installs Sophos Connect
  • Imports the old configuration into Sophos Connect so users can still connect to UTM.
  • Installs a provisioning file for the coming Sophos Firewall so that migration will be easier

The script has been tested and is working. Implementation in Test Environment is highly recommended before proceeding to the Production side,

@echo off

	Popd
