Web Filter & Security migration summary

The following describes only the web module migration steps. For a summary of the complete upgrade procedure, see Summary of the upgrade process.

Steps

  1. Procure and set up a new V-Series appliance with the same version of Web Filter & Security that is currently running on the dual-mode appliance.
  2. Perform a Web Configuration backup on the dual-mode appliance. This backs up only the Web Filter & Security module. Save the backup file to an off-appliance location.
  3. Restore the backup on the new appliance.
  4. On the new appliance, upgrade Web Filter & Security to v8.5.x.

    The migration step is complete.
