What are the Edge Threat Management Support policies?

Overview
Edge Threat Management support is available to customers who have purchased a Live Support subscription (included in our NG Firewall Complete package).

If you do not have a Live Support subscription we recommend visiting our various online self-help pages:

• Forums - Our forums are robust and very active. They’re a great resource. You can find the forums at http://forums.untangle.com/.
  
  
• Wiki - Our Wiki site is another great resource, full of information - including links to all of our products’ store pages, user forums, and FAQs. Our Wiki site is located at http://wiki.untangle.com/index.php/Main_Page. (Don't let the name fool you: the Wiki is not publicly editable and is maintained entirely by Edge Threat Management staff.)
  
  
• Support Page - Customers can also access the Edge Threat Management support portal at http://support.untangle.com, where they will be able to view our knowledgebase articles and solutions.

Response Times
We're only able to respond to support requests during our normal hours of operation. Responses are provided on a first-come, first-served basis. Our median first-response time for support tickets not generated via phone call is 2 business hours. Our average hold time is 60 seconds.

NOTE: We cannot control phone call volume so we cannot guarantee hold times. There may be times that you may be holding for longer than a minute.   

Case Priorities:

Normal - How To questions and minor issues

High - An app or service is not functioning

Urgent - Appliance or software is completely non-functional
