Hello Everyone,
A question was sent to me directly and I would like to reply to the
group as well -
Version 5.2 and above is only available for the following firewalls.
GB-Ware
GB-250's
GB-800's
GB-2000 (Family)
GB-3000's
If you have a RoBoXR, GB-200, GB-500, GB-1000R, GB-1200 or GB-1500 and
you feel you need features only available in v5.2 you can contact either
our sales team or local channel partner in regards to the other possible
options for your firewall. Please note that the RoBoXR uses the GB-200
OS and GB-1000R use the GB-1200 OS.
There is an EOL announcement located at

this has more information on the older units.
Regards,
David

Full release notes can be viewed at:
http://www.gta.com/support/showReleaseNote/?id=116.
Important Upgrade Notice:
Re-sizing Slices and Runtime Upgrades
In order to support the new features in GB-OS 5.2, some firewalls may
require partition re-sizing during the upgrade process. Upon
re-sizing, both runtime slices will have GB-OS 5.2, and firewall
administrators WILL NOT be able to revert to previous runtimes via the
Console or Web interface.
GTA strongly recommends backing up current firewall configurations
PRIOR to upgrading.
Firewalls requiring re-sized partitions will take approximately 5-8
minutes to reboot and fully update once the runtime has been applied.
DO NOT switch off or reboot the firewall during this process.
For detailed information on the upgrade procedure, please refer to the
GB-OS 5.2 User's Guide or visit http://www.gta.com/support/upgrade/.
GB-OS 5.2 will be available via automatic upgrade feature for GTA
Firewall UTM systems running GB-OS 5.0 or higher, or via download from
the GTA Online Support Center that are covered by a current
maintenance or support contract. If you have any questions or
concerns, please email GTA Sales, [email protected] or Support,
[email protected].
Regards,
David
