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.edge.arista.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.edge.arista.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.
Arista Edge Threat Management Support covers:
- NG Firewall software for the current and previous minor version release. Minimum supported version is 16.5.2 as of April 2023.
- Micro Edge software for the current and previous minor version release. Minimum supported version is 4.0 as of April 2023.
- Your Edge Threat Management hardware, if it was purchased or leased from us.
We do not support or offer recommendations for 3rd-party hardware. Below is a link to an article in our wiki outlining the Hardware requirements to run NG Firewall. This can be used as a reference when sourcing your own hardware.

Regarding CLI Administration:
Arista ETM Support staff are only able to support the software in its original, unmodified form.
CLI changes may alter or compromise functions and may impact our ability to troubleshoot. If the software has been significantly modified, we may be unable to troubleshoot at all: in that case, we can only be able to recommend you reinstall.
NG Firewall is based on Debian Linux and as such, it's possible to install third-party packages or utilities to it. Please be aware that you do so at your own risk: we cannot offer any assistance in installing or troubleshooting third-party packages
