Hey guys,
Long time Sophos/Astaro user, first time wireless user. I'm considering a Sophos solution for my company for its wireless capability, but have a few questions, since the wireless portion I've never used. (my currently company doesn't use Sophos (all Cisco), though I've used Sophos a lot in the past, and currenty use it at home).
Suppose I have a couple MPLS (192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.2.0/24, and 192.168.3.0/24) sites, and most of them don't have local internet connections. I want to provide a guest network at each, segregated from my production network.
Easy! Just use VLANS since you're on MPLS! Well, our MPLS provider supports VLAN trunking, but that's turning out to be quite a costly affair with my ISP due to all the setup required on their end, therefore utilizing VLANs isn't really an option (for what my ISP is charging, I could just buy a Cisco wireless setup outright and do it the hard way). Higher end wireless setups like Cisco support tunneling, where one can tunnel all guest traffic directly to your controller at your head office, so you don't need VLANs, but the guest traffic never interacts with production traffic even though it transits over the production network.
Is there a way I could accomplish with with a Sophos wireless setup? I think it's possible, but it seems as though I would need REDs or UTMs at every site.
How do you guys handle guest networks at branch office sites (both MPLS and traditional VPN sites)?
