Upgrading the virtual appliance

New versions of the F-Secure Internet Gatekeeper Virtual Appliance will occasionally be released to add new features and fix security and other issues. For optimal protection, you should monitor relevant security advisories and release announcements, and apply upgrades as soon as feasible. Running the most recent version also guarantees that F-Secure supports your Virtual Appliance.

All updates are delivered as a full Virtual Appliance image that can be deployed and configured to replace the previous version.

Backing up the virtual appliance configuration
Replacing a deployed Virtual Appliance with a new one involves transferring the configuration from the old Virtual Appliance to the new one. This must be done when you either upgrade the product or install hotfixes. To download a package containing the necessary data for migration, open the product’s Web User Interface and select “Backup and restore” in the left side menu. Click “Backup configuration” to download the archive.
The archive contains the following data for updating to a newer release of the Virtual Appliance:

  • A backup of all settings configurable in the Web UI, including
    • F-Secure Internet Gatekeeper proxy settings
    • F-Secure Internet Gatekeeper virus scanning settings
  • Proxy authentication settings
  • Any modifications to virus detection templates
  • Access, error and debug logs of proxies
  • Virus database update logs
Importing the backed-up configuration to a new virtual appliance
Log in to the Web User Interface and select “Backup and restore” in the left side menu. Click “Restore” and upload the previously saved archive. Click “Upload” to restore your configuration automatically.

Known issues

  • The diag package contains only the most recent log files: the current and the latest rotated log. If you need to access other log files, download them from the web UI separately.
  • The following error messages may appear during the network configuration step. They are harmless and can be ignored: – grep: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0: Permission denied– Could not change any device settings
  • Network configuration does not validate the format of the given IP address / net mask.
