Red 50 behind UTM 220 with failover on Internet

myridom
OK I have a weird setup. I know this is possible with other products (Watchguard), but I need to know if it's possible with a UTM 220 and a RED 50.



I have a 10-30MB transparent fiber connection between 2 offices. We throttle this up and down depending on the season and usage.

What I would like to do is have the RED50 establish a tunnel along this fiber connection and use the cable modem at each location as a backup.

Is having a RED50 essentially behind the UTM possible?

    Hi, Myridom, and welcome to the User BB!

    No, the RED 50 can't be an endpoint for a site-to-site IPsec VPN.  Yes, the RED 50 can failover to the ISP connection to reach the LANs behind the UTM.  No, there's no selection in the RED 50 configuration that allows failover to the UTM's WAN connection if the WAN connection of the RED 50 is down.

    I think the optimal solution with Sophos for what you want, instead of a RED, is a UTM 120 with a Network Protection subscription using the approach described here.

    Cheers - Bob
