Connecting 1000 RED devices

If I have to connect 1000 remote points with RED devices, which UTM do I have to choose? Or if the answer is a Virtual UTM, wich configuration do I need? Thanks

UTM is going to provide access only to the RED devices, no more functionalities.

  • You need mote than one UTM/SG/XG.

    The max possible RED-ID is 799 but max recommended is 600 using SG 650

    I would use at least two software appliances with network protection subscription only.

    Together with some recommendations and Dirk's advice you could plan now.

    My recommendation for a 1000 REDs is not only to split load, but to consider some failover/HA scenario.

  • Olá Leandro and welcome to the UTM Community!

    As you can tell from Dirk and Philipp's answers, it's not practical to connect 1000 REDs to a single instance.  Someone knowledgeable needs to work with you to determine the best solution for your needs.

    Your needs seem to be more than this venue can provide.  My suggestion would be to contact Sophos Sales, describe your situation to them and ask them to recommend a knowledgeable reseller partner in your area.

    Cheers - Bob
