Upgrade Firmware from WatchGuard Cloud
Gilt für: Cloud-verwaltete Fireboxen, Lokal verwaltete Fireboxen
You can upgrade firmware for a device from WatchGuard Cloud. You can upgrade the firmware immediately or schedule the upgrade for a future time.
For locally-managed Fireboxes only, the Firebox automatically creates a backup when firmware is upgraded from WatchGuard Cloud. For information on how to create a backup image manually, see Firebox Backup-Images in der WatchGuard Cloud verwalten.
An individual Firebox must run Fireware v12.5.2 or higher to be able to update the firmware from WatchGuard Cloud. To upgrade a FireCluster in WatchGuard Cloud, cluster members must run Fireware v12.7.1 or higher (or v12.5.8 or higher for T10, T15, T30, T35, T50, M200 and M300 Fireboxes).
