The Azure problem

JeffTarnowski

I have been using Sophos UTM for about 2 years in SMB settings. Been a huge proponent of the product. My most recent position has use migrating to Azure. I found out over the weekend Sophos does not support IKEv2 and thus IPSec Tunnels are not supported by MS. What are people doing to get around this problem? It isn't like Azure is something new. More and more companies are migrating some or all work loads into it.  The work arounds found on the internet I tried didnt work. And I just got off the phone with Support which said there isnt much they can do for me. I'm actually shocked at the lack of support Sophos has in this space. 

I have my sales rep working with his Sophos reps but the only thing about IKEv2 seems to be for the XG platform. I have tried XG and thought it was pretty bad. And would not want to deploy. 

What have people done to get this working? Is this something I can realistically expect UTM 9 to eventually support? 

Thanks,

  • Sophos solution to this at this point in time is.

    Sophos has released a Azure image so that you can create a Sophos UTM to UTM tunnel.

    That is until 9.5 release or v17 of XG.

    This is my understanding as of yesterday.

    Thanks. I just got word late last night about the XG appliance in Azure. And is IKEv2 a for sure thing for 9.5? 

    I thank you for the response. Somebody should let Sophos support know about this current work around. They were a dead end.

    IKEv2 was indicated as a mandatory requirement for the XG project.

    That is all I will say on the subject, yes everybody is disappointed this has slipped.
