      Hi list,

      how would I manage a bunch of boxes? Do I really have to have say 10 tabs open instead of one centralized GUI?

      Cheers,

        Yes, really.  There is no central management, yet.  Besides, after initial configuration, how much twiddling do you need to do on an ongoing basis?

          Well, if you have different networks for different customers and they want changes every now and then…

          Thanx,

              This would come in handy for managing multiple UTMs, especially if there is a package install/update that can be done to 2 or more by a single click. Also if a package configuration change can be pushed to multiple UTMs.
