As Handbook of USG Flex 100H reports, there's a new kid (firmware) on Zyxel firewalls.
uOS1.10

New toys for the customers? I hope not cloud-only…

    I've seen USG Flex 100H datasheet. I don't know how much will be the MSRP, however this seems a "too little" for any use. Companies do not change device in 2 years.

    In 2023 1GBe devices (even with plenty ports) are simply not enough, slowest Ethernet interface available should be 2.5Gbe.
    And a full 8x1GBe ports is all over "H" Series. Comparable machines from NetGate have 2x or 4x 10GBe, plus 4x 2.5gbe.

    I've started toying with my first "uOS" device.

    I think that's still a really long way to go (it's really slow on Firefox, and you cannot edit name of any created object. Not really quality of life).

    Hi,

    I'm using devices with uOS for a longer time now and I'm very happy with it.

    Created objects like address or services can easily be renamed.

    I'm using a USG Flex200H with firmware 1.37.

    I was not that lucky on vLANS, security policy, objects.

    I can only get them right or throw them away; also, on ZLD 5 i was able to rename interfaces, currently LAN1 is… only LAN1; I would love to rename it as "City6_Store".
    IDK, maybe I might have that option on Chrome?

    Chrome will not help.

    Regarding interfaces: What I know is you have to delete and add them to give them a new name.
    Could be easier, yes.

    But for me I like to work with uOS.

    I was expecting that…

    Rename is necessary.
