I'm looking for recommendations from anyone that works with the UTM-1 Edge devices for Site-to-Site VPN's with remote offices. In preparation for an upgrade from an R65 SPLAT Management Server/Gateway to R71 (new hardware), I need to first get a UTM-1 Edge device I have upgraded from v7.0.33 to v8.0.42 and also Libsw files on the R65 management server/gateway. I actually have a cold spare at the remote site as a backup so I'm looking at getting that one connected and upgraded first and then the other one.
My plan is to first get the Libsw files updated (backward compatible) on R65 then connect remotely to a computer at that location and do a manual upgrade from the web interface. I'm hoping I will not loose the remote connection to the PC over the VPN until I restart after the upgrade. I'm also assuming the current configuration will remain and the Site-to-Site VPN will come up with the Edge upgraded to the V8 software and then a policy install from the R65 Management Server. I have no way to test this in advance and I'm also assuming I can reconnect the second Edge with the V7.0.33 software and repeat the process to upgrade that one.
