1 Introduction
Sophos UTM Manager (SUM) is the central management tool for UTM. With SUM you can
offer management security services, while quickly and easily managing all UTM devices, regardless of location.
SUM provides a centralized Dashboard which displays the health and status of all UTMs. With
SUM you have single sign-on to all UTMs. SUM stores device configuration backups centrally to
speed recovery. You can easily define reusable objects to manage and distribute network, services and time-event definitions. Via a specialized wizard you can build, edit and deploy site-tosite VPN tunnels and related policies. You are also able to configure network, mail and web filtering policies for multiple sites or customers to avoid repetitive tasks and save time.
With the real-time monitoring and alerting functionality you can view threat, network and hardware status across your entire estate of UTMs. You also can get daily, weekly, monthly or
annual insights into trends in network utilization and security.
Sophos UTM Manager is a free tool that can be used as part of any Sophos UTM subscription.

2 How to get SUM
For getting SUM you have two possibilities. If you, for example, want to test SUM for a while,
you can get a 30-days version with the option to create the license afterwards or you can get a
full package (download link, full license file, installation guidelines) directly.
2.1 Get 30-days version
To get SUM with the 30-days version, proceed as follows:
1. Navigate to the Sophos downloads area.
2. Click at Sophos UTM Manager on Download ISO.
The download dialog opens directly and you get the ISO with 30-days-license.
3. Mount the ISO on a virtual drive or burn a CD and install SUM.
4. Give SUM an IP-address of your network environment so that it's reachable from your
UTMs and the management PC.
5. After installation open SUM in your web browser and make the basic system setup by following the displayed steps.
You can use SUM now for 30 days.
If you want to get a license you have to create a MyUTM account and generate it there. Additional information for the MyUTM account you will find in the MyUTM User Guide. Information
about license installation you will find in the online help of the SUM WebAdmin in the menu Installation > Basic Configuration.
