NGFW 15.1.0 beta available!

[jcoffin]

Is it going to be unlikely that we won't be able to upgrade to the final version with this beta?

^^^^

disclaimer: this is an beta, we do not recommend using it in production as it might not upgrade to the final version.

Also is there a way to do a remote clean install so we don't have to use a monitor and keyboard?

Yes, on a ESXi Server.

If it hasn't happened yet 4GB will soon be the limiting factor for performance. How are you going to get around that? Leave out all the apps? Then you don't need a subscription anyway. With all the business's that will be closing it will be a good time to upgrade before 15.1 comes out.

No, it wont... Untangle doesn't need the RAM you think it does.

Incorrect. 64 bit will work fine with less than 4G of memory. There is no performance hit, just that memory is not as efficiently used.

just that memory is not as efficiently used.

Q.E.D.

FYI Installed iso fine on proxmox and imported 15.0 config. So far so good.

Thanks

The alpha did install on a 12 year old Dell, no complaints.

I am not sure the interface Remapping is satisfactory to me, but it has not blown up.


HOWEVER:
I found some things that started with 15.0?

I've seen this "feature":

Remove OpenVPN Windows installer

Does it means now we have to install vanilla openvpn and configure it with untangle details?

So are you suggesting that Untangle is built on Debian multiarch?

No, the 12 year old Dell was AMD64 based, because that's how old this junk is.

32bit is only a problem for specific Atom platforms Intel made relatively recently that are i386 only.

No, I am blissfully ignorant of what is under the hood, at this point
It just works.


And the

statement was more like crying wolf.
