Untangle Firewall Setup Install On Hyper

The status of the Firewall application provides you with basic information, including sessions passed, flagged, blocked, etc.

You can easily add rules to the Firewall app under the Rules tab.

You can set up any type of custom rule, for example block and flag all traffic to or from a specific port.

This report shows the Top Scanned Hostnames and allows you to drill-down to show more details.

I can rest assured all my networks are protected against all types of attacks.

For a while, I ran an ASA, then migrated to pfSense and soon after that I went over the a Ubiquiti USG-Pro.

I thought, great, I can download Untangle, spin up a VM and be on my way.

As it turns out, Untangle only provides their appliance as an OVA.

Untangle Firewall Setup Install On Hyper

Untangle will install on Hyper-V, they just do not provide the virtual appliance.

My background is in ESXi and not Hyper-V so that was where most of my learning curve came from.

For me, the biggest hangup was configuring the virtual switch for the WAN.

Hopefully my blogtutorial post will help someone get their Untangle instance setup on Hyper-V.

One will be for the LAN connection, the other will be for the WAN connection.

Give it a name that indicates its use, so in this case, mine is simply, WAN.

From the drop down menu under the External Network radio button, select the physical adapter that you will use.

Be sure to check off Allow management operating system to share this adapter this will allow your host to share LAN access with this VM.

If you need help creating a virtual machine, please see my post titled CentOS 7 Minimal Installation on Hyper-V or click on the link to take you there.

The only difference with this virtual machine will be the specs.

This process takes a little while, you may want to go make yourself a coffee and come back.

Although I ran into some issues initially because I had never done it before.
