12.2.1 Update the Firewall
The version of the firewall software is given as a build number. First check if a newer version
is available. An immediate update will not check the build number but rather updates the
firewall with the same version number.
The update stops all services and restarts the firewall. Therefore you should update the soft-
ware only if a newer version is available.
First click the button
Check for Updates
. The firewall checks the server for new ver-
sions.
If the firewall answers that a new version is available, click
Update
.
