Chapter 8 System
STEP 1 STEP 2
STEP 3
If necessary, download a software update package from TMC.
From the LSM menu, select System > Update. On the Update page, click the TOS/DV Update tab.
Verify available disk space.
In Step 2 on the SYSTEM - Update - Manual Software Update page, locate the line that says:
Make sure the file you downloaded is smaller than: <number> MB.
If the update package that you downloaded is smaller than <number>, proceed to Step 3.
If the update package is larger than <number>, delete older versions of the software to free disk space. For details, see “Delete a previously installed TOS software ver- sion” on page 221.
After freeing disk space, return to the TOS/DV Update page and repeat Step 2 and 3.
STEP 4 In Step 3 check the High Priority Enabled check box if there is an immediate need for the update, and it is during normal working hours. This setting will give requests from the software update process the highest system priority until the update completes.
Note The High Priority Enabled option provides the priority for downloading the package. However, the device does not give package installation processes priority over attacks. If an attack occurs during an update, the device will would not give priority to the update process at that time.
STEP 5 In Step 4, type the full path and file name for the update package that you downloaded from the Threat Management Center, or click Browse to select the file.
STEP 6 Click Install to install the software update.
When updating the software, the bar showing update progress may be interrupted by a pop- up message window. If this occurs, you will need to monitor the update process using the system log. If the system log does not show any errors during the update process, the device reboots when the update is complete.
When the installation completes, the device performs a soft reboot. After the reboot, you can log back in to the device.
CAUTION During the LSM install, do not close the browser window or navigate off the Update page while the software installs.
