Hey, does anyone know the rules for reselling a 'used' UTM firewall on eBay or the like? Things like Fortinets, Sonicwalls and Watchguards have UTM licenses, so I wasn't sure.

I know if you do a tradeup with Watchguard, the old unit cannot be transferred and no upgrades or licenses can be applied to it.

Not sure about Fortinets or Sonicwalls.

same for sonicwalls.
If they have a valid support contract and are not traded up they can be transferred to another party.
If the transferring party does not have a support contract they are boat anchors.
 
I've transfered ownership of several SonicWalls without issue without support contract. They only requested the previous owners name and a picture of the serial number on the bottom. Even some purchased on ebay.
 
The last sonicwall I went to transfer they would not do so without a service contract that was a while ago however.
