Appliance replacement and configuration restore
When an appliance fails, the replacement is prepared with your configuration and firmware level applied, so the swap on board is a cable exercise.

What YOT does with the GFI Software line
Pre-sales sizing, assembly, firmware levelling, imaging and burn-in testing happen before dispatch, so the work left on site is installation.
Sizing against throughput and users
The NG110, NG310, NG510 and NG511 sit at different points on performance and redundancy. We size against the traffic the network actually carries rather than the vessel's length.
VLAN and segmentation design
Guest, crew and control networks are segmented on the firewall before delivery, which is the configuration most often rebuilt from memory after a failure.
Multi-WAN across Starlink, VSAT and 5G
Uplink selection between satellite and cellular paths is configured and tested, so failover behaviour is known before the vessel leaves.
Licence and renewal tracking
Kerio and GFI subscriptions are tracked with renewal alerts ahead of expiry and consolidated billing, so protection does not lapse mid season.
Spares held for the fleet
Fleet operators can hold a spare appliance in our stock against an agreed replacement path rather than waiting on a shipment when a unit dies.

Where GFI Software fits
- Maritime and refit
- The dominant use case. Kerio Control is widely deployed on yachts, and crews benefit from an installed base large enough that support is available in most ports.
- Commercial
- Small and medium sites wanting unified threat management in one appliance with a management interface a non-specialist can operate.
- Enterprise branch
- Segmented branch networks where VLAN separation and modular licensing keep the cost proportional.
- Energy and remote sites
- Perimeter security on sites managed remotely, with redundancy where downtime is expensive.

What is Kerio Control?
Kerio Control is a unified threat management firewall, now part of GFI Software, that combines intrusion prevention, antivirus, content filtering and application control in a single appliance, with VLAN support and modular licensing.
Which Kerio Control appliance should we choose?
The NG110 suits smaller networks, the NG310 medium sized ones, the NG510 larger networks needing more throughput, and the NG511 adds redundant features for maximum uptime on critical operations.
Can you supply a replacement Kerio appliance for a vessel already in service?
Yes. We supply Kerio Control appliances as replacements and prepare the unit with your configuration and firmware level before shipping, so the swap on board is a cable exercise.
Why is Kerio still so common on yachts?
The installed base is large, the interface is manageable by crew rather than specialists, VLAN support suits separated guest and crew networks, and in most ports somebody is available who can support a Kerio.
Do you handle Kerio and GFI licence renewals?
Yes. Subscriptions are tracked with renewal alerts ahead of expiry and billed alongside your other lines, so cover does not lapse between seasons.
