Getting Started with Untangle (Things to Know)

The following links contain a wealth of information on how Untangle works, including racks, applications and policies. If you're new to Untangle, we highly recommend reading these pages to familiarize yourself with the platform:


Applications

There are two types of Applications:

  • Filter Applications: All the Applications above the Services pane in the interface can have unique configurations, which you can apply to specific virtual racks. Virtual racks enable you to create different policies for different sets of users.
  • Service Applications: All the Applications below the Services pane are services and are "global." Each has a configuration that applies to all virtual racks. As such, if you remove any service from any rack, you will remove that service from all racks.

We also have a list of discontinued apps - these are not available to new installations and are no longer supported by Untangle.
