NG Firewall 16.5 Release Candidate now available!

So do we have any idea what's up with untangle? Is this the last version? They bailing on us or what?

I hope it's not the final release, I have been a loyal customer for over 4 years. If the writing is on the wall I better start brushing up on competing products such as pfSense.

Relax, they are working on V17. Untangle > Arista isn't going anywhere.. They are all super busy ATM with the new merge to new company things are coming along !!

Hard to see what they are doing since they closed access to the jira. Git suggests they may have resumed working on 17 in the last couple of weeks.

All we can do is guess and hope!

I'll post some information in a bit here, just waiting for Permission..

When I looked at GIT alot of the more active programmers no longer are submitting commits. So I'm not sure what's going on. It's just incredibly quiet, and has not been this quiet in a very long time.

We are actively working on several projects. Some of the projects are not part of public Github repository (MFW for instance) which is the reason the public view does not seem to be much activity. Rest assured we are working on NGFW and MFW.

Good to know. It just seems incredibly quiet. Plus you were releasing a major update every year then stopped for likely because of Covid. Just seems like there’s no longer any way for us to know what’s been going on at all. We used to be able to see active projects, but that seems to be gone ��

MFW - Managed Firewall ?

Hopefully with Arista's resources more development capacity.
