- Use the SFP port on all of our XG 1xx models to add DSL connectivity to your appliance. Get rid of your router and connect your appliance directly to the DSL socket on your wall. This means one less piece of equipment to manage and a fully integrated solution.
- The following is the general SPF record for Central Email outbound scanning. V=spf1 include:spf.prod.hydra.sophos.com all. It expands into the following SPF records as shown in.
VDSL2 SFP modem to directly connect to a VDSL line (via a RJ11 cable). These modules are not delivered with the appliance but available through your Sophos partner. Please note that there are different Mini-GBIC module types. The required type is determined by the existing network. The following SFP GBIC module types may be used: SFP: 1000 Base-T. 2 port 10GbE SFP+ FleXi Port module (for SG/XG 2xx/3xx/4xx only) #SGIZTCHF2. List Price: $795.00. Add to Cart to see sale price! 2 port 10GbE SFP+ FleXi Port module (for XG 750 and SG/XG 550/650 rev.2 only) #XGCZTCHF2. List Price: $2,095.00.
Your organization should already have an SPF record for your domains registered with Microsoft Office 365. You need to update this record in the DNS zone for the relevant domain.
You can replace your existing SPF record or add to it, depending on your requirements.
It is normal to replace the record. However, if your outbound email is being routed through Sophos Email and Office 365 simultaneously for a period, you can add an include statement for Sophos Email to your existing SPF record.
You can use the all parameter in different ways. You must understand how to do this and the implications of your choice.
Sophos Sfp Modules
- Hard fail:
You can use a dash (-) before the all parameter for a
hard fail
. If your mail isn't sent from Sophos Email, and your recipients' mail servers carry out SPF checks, they will reject your mail. - Soft fail:
You can use a tilde (~) before the all parameter instead, for a
soft fail
. The command won't fail if an IP address doesn't exist, it continues and processes the rest of the IP addresses. If your recipients' mail servers carry out SPF checks, they won't reject your mail.
Replacing your SPF record
If your outbound email is only routed through Sophos Email you can use the Sophos Email SPF record.

Flexibility and performance enhancements
Sophos Spf Record
- Version 18.0 delivered a data plane with a Virtual FastPath (VFP) to allow the offloading of trusted and previously security-verified traffic, using the same x86 CPU for the offloaded traffic. On the XGS Series, after inspecting the initial packets in a flow, the x86 CPU offloads trusted traffic to the Xstream FastPath, which runs on the Xstream Flow Processor and is specifically designed for FastPath operations.
- The Xstream Flow Processor delivers and retrieves packets directly to and from the DPI engine's main memory. These enhancements deliver a significant increase in the overall network performance with a 5x improvement in latency with the zero-copy operation and up to a 5x increase in SSL/TLS decryption performance versus the previous hardware models.
- The Xstream architecture saves cycles of the x86 clock by lowering memory bandwidth usage and allowing both processors to update the cache.
- Port density and diversity: XGS Series appliances offer an increased number of fixed ports and include some new port connectivity, such as Power over Ethernet (PoE), which is now built-in on some desktop models. They also offer a broad range of Flexi Port modules and add-on options to adapt and extend connectivity.
