Maestro Madness
Dear CheckMates,
Do any of you have any experience migrating from SOPHOS (SG450) UTM9 to Check Point 6400 R81.20?
I haven't been able to find anything in my searches.
Best regards,
Andrew
Hi,
I'm afraid I'm not aware of such a tool.
We did this one time manual by hand.
Main reason was that Sophos UTM 9,5x has NAT features which CheckPoint does not understand. And thefore redesign was mandatory anyhow.
Regards
For the reference, this is what smartmove supports.

Smartmove currently does not support Sophos.
It supports 4 vendors, Cisco, Juniper, Fortinet and Palo Alto

Definitely tool does not exist for such migration, @Anthony_Hove and @S_E_ are 100% right. I had done this migration once before from Sophos and sadly, it all has to be manual, sorry mate.
Probably not what you want to hear, but thats the case.
Good luck!
Andy
Thanks everybody for your help & support.
The transformation was done by hand and it did require some careful adjustments, especially regarding the SMTP relaying functionality provided by Sophos.
For the reference, this is what smartmove supports.
