Overview
This Recommended read describes ways to migrate Sophos UTM Configurations parts to Sophos Firewall, with UTM API and Import/Export Features.
This will also include Powershell Scripts to migrate some Features and options.
Migration Desk
This is free to all Partners (and subsequently customers) that will assist in planning, executing, and verifying migrations of your existing firewall or Sophos UTM to Sophos Firewall migrations.
- For Sophos Partners: The Sophos Migration Desk can be engaged from the Sophos Partner Portal.
- For Sophos Customers: Please review the Online help: https://docs.sophos.com/support/migration/en-us/firewall/index.html
The following scripts follow an easy approach: This will download the configuration via JSON UTM API and convert this content to an XML File. The XML File is usable in SFOS for more information about the approach.
Sophos UTM offers a full API and a "Swagger" tool for the entire configuration.
Accessing API
You can access the API of Sophos UTM by using https://IP:4444/api
The Swagger UI offers you the Schema UTM uses for every feature.
For example, Network Host Objects
It’ll show you the CURL request and Token you need to do to GET the data. You’ll also see the format in this code.
We can now use the data we get via API and convert it to XML Data. We need to map the matching points of UTM to SFOS.
In the example below, We map the data of the UTM "name" to the SFOS name, and we'll map the IP address to the IP address. Then, add the rest of the XML code, which is static. The approach of this migration is always the same: fetch the data, convert it to XML, and save it.
Kindly replace the IP and the Authorization Token in the Script and run it via Powershell.

Convert REDs from UTM to SFOS
Use this code with Caution. RED can only be deployed with one Firewall (UTM or SFOS). If you register the RED from UTM to SFOS, iRED will begin to restart.
This code is very static and won’t migrate complex RED deployments like UMTS, Transparent / Split, or other scenarios. It won’t migrate DHCP Servers but will keep the IP Addresses of the REDs.

Important Note: The code will generate XML Files for SFOSv19.5. If you want to use the XML in an older version of SFOS, adjust the following line:
<Configuration APIVersion="1905.1" IPS_CAT_VER="1">
Feel free to contribute more code for migration scenarios. We’ll provide more code in the future.
