7.
Log back in to the UTM. The System Status screen displays.
8.
In the System Information section of the System Status screen, verify that the newly installed
firmware is the active firmware and that the old firmware is now the secondary firmware.
Note:
In some cases, such as a major upgrade, it might be necessary to
erase the configuration and manually reconfigure your UTM after
upgrading it. Refer to the firmware release notes that NETGEAR
makes available.
Upgrade the Firmware from a Downloaded File and Reboot the UTM
Instead of downloading the UTM firmware directly from a NETGEAR update server, you can
download the UTM firmware from a NETGEAR website to a computer in your network and
then upgrade the firmware on the UTM.
This option prevents the UTM from taking bandwidth away from end users because the
download does not occur on the UTM. This option is also convenient if you have multiple
UTMs in your network, because you can download the firmware just once, make it available
at a central location in your network, and then upload the firmware on each UTM.
Note:
Upgrading the UTM firmware from a downloaded file is also referred
to as an offline upgrade.
To download the latest firmware for your UTM:
1.
Use one of the following two methods to go to the product support page:
Visit the NETGEAR Support website at http://support.netgear.com. In the Find Your
Product field, enter the model number of your UTM (for example, enter UTM25).
Go directly to the product support page by entering
http://kbserver.netgear.com/products/<productmodel>.asp, in which you need to
replace <productmodel> with the model number of your UTM (for example, enter
http://kbserver.netgear.com/products/utm25.asp).
2.
When the product support page displays, click the Download tab to view the available
firmware versions.
3.
Follow the instructions onscreen to download the firmware to your computer.
To upgrade the UTM's firmware from a downloaded file and reboot the UTM:
1.
In the Firmware Upload section of the Firmware screen, click Browse to locate and
select the previously saved firmware upgrade file (for example,
UTM50-Firmware-1.3.4.0.pkg).
2.
Click Upload.
