PPTP - Set timeout for users that are inactive
We have users who are connecting via PPTP to the VPN that are not terminating their PPTP VPN session on their PCs. They are using Windows Built-In VPN application to connect.
This results in a single user having several sessions taking up IP address from our set VPN IP range.
Unless I'm not seeing it, can the option to terminate PPTP VPN sessions based on activity be added?
We're using SG330 (SFOS 18.0.4 MR-4)

RED as Software-Device-Image (for vmWare / HyperV)
Is it possible to publish the RED devices as a software image (for example for vmWare and HyperV)?
We have use cases in PaaS- / IaaS areas in which such a scenario would be very practical.3 votes -

Web filtering Adblock list support
For home use it would be really nice to block ads before even entering the network.
A very popular format for these link lists is the format used by the popular addon adblock. There are many lists out there which are very nicely maintained (for example easylist). It would save a lot of work if we could just use these lists.

email quarantain
Edit the Release Link in Quarantine digest email for XG 17.5.13, not to x.x.x.x:4444
rather to the UserPortal, instead to message: "You can release quarantined emails only from user portal. To release them, sign in to user portal."
Or remove the link.7 votes -
Firmware - 3 slots
This morning I just updated the firmware. I only had the option to update to the non-active firmware slot. However, that is my FALLBACK firmware. It is (reasonably) stable and most importantly, known and known to work. I wanted to replace the current version of the firmware, but that was not possible.
Solution: 3 slots required for firmware.
The first, is the "long term stable" version the user can revert to if needed.
The second, the current (or active) service release.
The third, to slot for downloading and running the lastest version that is offered on the website.I really…

Quarantine report - Phishing/Spoofing
Sender field, in quarantine report email, currently presents only the forged/fake address of a Phishing/Spoofing email.
A good idea would be to add the real Sender Address, and maybe color it with RED to be eye-catchy and alert the user to pay attention to it.
Alternatively, display only the original email address.2 votes -
Change request for SFOS 18: Diagnose, Tools, Ping through VTI tunnel
I was wondering if in one of the next MRs in SFOS 18 it was possible to include one or both of the following changes:
Including the VTI interfaces in the pull-down menu options for PING diagnose
When pinging with an internal interface, letting the ping go through the routing tables including routing through VTI interfaces- In policy-based IPsec it is possible to configure system-traffic to go through the IPsec. When these settings are correct, then a ping from the LAN to an address configured in the system-traffic rules is routed through the IPsec.
With VTI IPsec, this doesn't work.…

Static Routes Should Be Top Precedence By Default
Static route should always be the top precedence by default. I have several tunnels that have stopped working after updating to v18 and having newly migrated policy routes take precedence.
Additionally, it would be nice to have a GUI-based option to change the precedence order, rather than needing to go and and make a CLI change for each device we upgrade.

Multicast Forwarding For Entire Netywork
It would be helpful if there was an option to select an entire network or a range of IP addresses for multicast forwarding. Currently, only individual IP addresses can be entered.

V18: option to disable SSH session idle timeout
As per this thread V18 has 15 min. idle timeout for SSH sessions set for non specific security reasons.
As likely most, if not all, IT professionals I always have my workstation locked, unless being right in front of it.
Therefore there is no such security feature needed, instead is is very disrupting as it may disconnect a session half way through a configuration or troubleshooting.
Yes, we all get interrupted at times or may need to prioritize sth. else, before returning to to our (hopefully still open) SSH session, at a later point in time.
Idle disconnect on SSH…

Email notification when WAN link is up
When our ISP is down, we receive an email notification that the particular WAN connection is down. However, we never get a notification when it is back up. Instead we have to go into the web GUI to confirm. I would really like to be notified when our connection is up after it being down. I have talked to support about this and they have said that Sophos does not support this feature please reference [ref:00D301GN6a.5003Z1BCbKS:ref ] for more details.

Bugs in Authentication Agent for macOS
When OTP (one-time password) is enabled for User Portal it causes the Client Authentication Agent for macOS to not work UNLESS the user enters their username and password PLUS their OTP token.
I have tested and confirmed this with Sophos support.
Enabling OTP for the User Portal should have NOTHING to do with the Authentication Agent for macOS. Furthermore the Authenticator agent should never require a OTP. Otherwise the poor user will need to re-enter his or her credentials every time their Mac is rebooted.Second bug: There is an on-going display issue with the Authentication Agent for macOS. The…
