NSv on Azure version?

SynergyTech

I'm in the process of deploying an NSv 200 on Azure. I deployed using the Installing NSv Series on Azure, however the version that deployed using the Azure template is firmware version SonicOSX 7.0.0.

The technician I just spoke to said that this is a non supported version and I need to deregister and remove it. He recommended following the steps in this article - https://www.sonicwall.com/support/knowledge-base/how-do-i-deploy-an-old-version-of-nsv-on-azure/191202144945079/

Is this correct?

@SynergyTech,

Actually, NSv 270 is used for firmware SonicOSX 7.0.0. The SonicOSX is different in behavior from SonicOS 7.0. So, it is not just a change in UI but the functionality itself. Kindly refer to this KB for details:

If you wish to use the Gen 6.5 OS (NSv 200), then the suggested KB from support is the right one.

Thanks!
