Checking Firmware Update Status; Backing Up And Restoring Configurations - Symantec 360R - Security Gateway SGS Administration Manual

Checking firmware update status

Backing up and restoring configurations

11 Turn DIP switches 2 and 4 (4) to the off position (down).
The Status section shows the date and version of the last firmware update. The
last update shows the date and time (if an NTP service is available) of the last
LiveUpdate check. This check may or may not have resulted in a new firmware
version being downloaded depending on whether the appliances firmware is
already the most recent version.
For automatic updates, LiveUpdate logs messages for the following events:
Successfully downloading the firmware package
■
Unsuccessfully downloading the firmware package
■
No new firmware package available; every component is current
■
If a LiveUpdate fails because of an HTTP error, the failure is logged along with
the HTTP error message reported by the HTTP client.
To check firmware update status
Knowing the version of the firmware on the appliance is important if you plan to
