Firmware Upgrade Path for TZ 200 and NSA 2600

AdamSymQuest

Hi,

Are there published upgrade paths for the TZ and NSA firewalls?

Or is the practice to get to the latest within the minor releases e.g. 5.9.0.0 ---> 5.9.1.13, then 5.9.1.13 --> 5.9.2.7?

Or can you jump directly to the latest e.g. 5.9.0.0 --> 5.9.2.7?

Looked for this information in the Support Matrix, but wasn't able to find anything regarding firmware upgrade, just configuration import/exports.

Thank you.

Thank you @SARAVANAN is there a place on the SonicWall site that help admins find the correct upgrade path?

Hi @ADAMSYMQUEST,

Unfortunately No. The reason is, with latest SonicOS firmware for Gen 6, 6.5 (6.5.x.x) and 7 (7.x.x.x) devices we can jump directly from any lower firmware version to higher firmware version. I gave you an upgrade path for Gen 5 (5.9.x.x) device based on my experience.

Hope this clarifies.
