Hardware Requirements

  • The Untangle Server requires a dedicated PC installed at the gateway to your network.
  • Your hardware does not need an operating system - the Untangle Server installs its own operating system.
  • The Untangle Server software completely erases any content or data that may exist on your PC hard drive.

Untangle Hardware

Untangle now offers a line of servers, with Untangle software pre-installed. For more info on our hardware range see http://www.untangle.com/hardware-appliances
