I have had my Sophos UTM VM for almost 3 years and really love the product. It's super easy to manage and has great functionality. However, it was time to learn something new and given the rise of Fortinet during the last few years I decided to purchase a Fortigate.
This is not a complete migration. Since I had quite a number of objects, DNS and DHCP reservations I decided to automate that process and share the script. Rules were quite few so I made that part manually. Feel free to make a pull request if you add functionality.
- Creates Fortigate Address objects based on the Sophos host objects
- Creates Fortigate DNS records in the local DNS database based ont he Sophos host objects
- Creates MAC address reservations in the DHCP server based on the Sophos host objects
- Does not migrate network objects, only /32
- Does not support more than one mac reservation per host (not even sure why Sophos supports it)
- Does not support more than one DNS database.
- Does not do anything else than what is stated above.
- Rename the
config-sample.ps1
toconfig.ps1
- Edit
config.ps1
and add your credentials and management addresses - Create a local DNS database on your Fortigate
- Create a DHCP server on one of your internal interfaces on your Fortigate
