Current definition patterns

Hello AUBB

I just have a quick question: does anyone know what the current definition patterns are for an ASG220?

I'm running 7.510 on the device.  I manually update them on a regular basis, but I haven't seen the definition patterns increment, at least on my box, since 7/24/12.  It seems to be stuck at 25443.

Another quickie: does Sophos have a link where I could check the current patterns?

Thank you very much.

  • There's no link that I know of to check the current release.  Take a look at your up2date log file when you trigger a pattern update, and see what's happening when it updates.

    The latest pattern update as of this posting is 25443.

    Note that, for instance, if you only have IPS enabled (no AV), that your pattern updates won't be updated as often (IPS rules aren't updated all that often)... so it's normal for such a system to lag behind in the pattern update "count."

  • I also recommend that you update the firmware to version 7.512 -- and, plan to get updated to 8.3xx as soon as possible, Version 7 is going end of life at the end of this year.
