Hey,, i am using the UTM9 and have been doing that in many years on kvm and custom hardware with a home license. The product is perfect and very stable both receive updates as long as the home license is valid and can be renewed
In my understanding the hardware provided by Sophos utm/sg/ng is in fact much similar / identical to regular x86 hardware and support running pfsense vyos or other similar open source firewalls until the device fails mechanically.
The EOL on the Sophos site says that software updates will stop on these older devices. That confuses me a lot, i understand phone support and repair on the devices stops when they reach EOL. But what about receiving software updates on working devices, why would the software updates stop when it will continue on our own custom build hardware with almost the same or similar hardware when it is just plain x86 hardware ?
