FAQs for Sophos Switches
Q: Can I manage a Sophos Switch without Sophos Central?
A: Yes, all Sophos Switches can be managed via a local web interface, CLI (Command Line Interface), or through a Sophos Firewall. However, the Sophos Central management (which requires a support subscription) is the recommended method for ease of use and full ecosystem integration.
Q: Do Sophos Switches require a license to function?
A: The switch hardware functions out of the box with a base license. However, to enable Sophos Central management, 24/7 support, and advanced hardware replacement, you need to purchase the Sophos Switch Support & Services subscription.
Q: What is the warranty on Sophos Switches?
A: Sophos Switches come with a limited lifetime warranty. The Support & Services subscription enhances this by adding 24/7 support and advanced (ships-first) hardware replacement.
