VIRTHV-1120 |
Sophos Security VM is now configured with VMXNET 3 virtual NICs. These offer better performance than the "flexible" NICs used previously. |
VIRTHV-1163 |
We've resolved an issue that resulted in Sophos Security VM having an up-to-date status of "Unknown" in Enterprise Console. |
VIRTHV-1139 |
We've resolved an issue that caused Sophos Security VM installation to fail on VMware ESXi if you specified a dynamic port group as the virtual LAN. |
VIRTHV-1172 |
The Sophos Security VM installer for VMware ESXi now checks that the Security VM name does not contain spaces, which cause error messages. |
