![]() Now to actually see what the device is doing using a console cable.įor MacOS SerialTools is a good free option for serial console access: I'd still not want it anywhere but in an equipment area away from living quarters, becuase they are cheap relatively noisy fans.įor the expired license, we get an XG Home license here: The fan on top of the CPU was failing and was shedding black plastic dust into the case. It was cheap because the license was expired, and because it has very loud failing cooling fans. The model number of the device is SCB-6905 and that matches up with an AEWIN OEM box that looks really similar: (1).jpg (1).jpg So I found the cheapest device I could at $100 + shipping - Cyberoam CR35i NG Security Appliance - 2.3 Gbps Firewall Throughput 6x GbE Ports so why not XG HomeĬyberRoam devices can be upgraded to Sophos XG Enterprise. ![]() That device got me to see that sophos XG would run. There was also one seller that had a cyberoam device for sale in the same $150 price range, but it was in Netherlands: I was looking for a cheap way to build this and looking on ebay I saw a bunch of pfsense upgradable devices. ![]() There are a bunch of bare bones devices that can run XG Home Edition at around $250 to $300. How can I build one using their free XG home software?

The main reason it does not work, is that the /etc/asg file is now missing, because this file tells the installer that it is running on an appliance, you cannot copy this from another appliance solely, because you need to modify it (Ex. There have been written a lot here about a fix:īut the link above does only make the display work with one view “Sophos UTM %version% and uptime”, this is due to the missing /etc/lcd.data file, because this file is only generated on appliances (hardware install). Install will proceed as normal, but after install, the LCD display will no longer work, cause it’s now a “software” install and not hardware appliance install. a SSD or other drive, the hardware installer will not install, due to hardware replacement (It looks for specific harddrives with special firmware!), then you cannot use the installer above, you will then have to go with the SOFTWARE ISO instead of the HARDWARE ISO. This workaround will not swap interface names, and if you have one of the bigger models, 220 and beyond, with LCD, then will this just work as it did with hardware config – software installations do not have support for the LCD driver – but this way it works. Now the UTM will boot running software license, and you can use your home license with it □
