Hello Kamran, I want to help, but I do not understand your configuration either. A detailed description of your hardware and network configuration would help us understand better. I have a Sophos UTM running under VMware Fusion (Mac). I described its setup here: https://community.sophos.com/products/unified-threat-management/f/52/p/27167/80436#80436 Even though it seems confusing and there are many Mac-specific instructions, VMware Fusion and VMware Workstation are very similar products, and you should be able to make it work for you. See the section called "Configuring VMware Virtual Machine". It may help a little. Here is my home hardware configuration: Internet (cable) Cable Modem (ethernet) Ethernet / USB 3 Adapter (External WAN, DHCP, IPv4/IPv6) Mac mini (UTM in virtual machine) Built-in Ethernet (LAN, private network, e.g. 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x) Ethernet switch for home network Here are a few VMware hints that may help you: I created a new virtual machine from the .iso file, but then I chose "Custom Configuration" so I could changed the settings and edit the .vmx file first before starting the .iso installer. The virtual machine has two Ethernet adapters. You will have to add one. Both Ethernet adapters are set to Bridged mode in VMware. Sophos recommends that you edit your .vmx file in your virtual machine to change the network adapter drivers from "e1000" to "vmxnet3". There will be two entries in the file, one for each network adapter. For Operating System, choose Linux -> Suse Linux Enterprise 11, 64-bit. Choose the number of cores for your virtual machine carefully. You cannot change the number of cores after you install the UTM in your virtual machine. I have a quad (4) Core i7 in my Mac. I gave my UTM two cores in VMware. Do not give your virtual machine more than total hardware cores - 1. Hyperthread cores do not count. I chose 8192 MB for my UTM in VMware. My Mac has 16 GB of RAM installed. You can change the memory for your virtual machine memory at any time. Just shutdown the UTM first, then change the memory setting in VMware. When you are ready, boot the VMware virtual machine. Follow the prompts during installation. Tell us more about your system and network, and we may be able to help more. Good luck!
