R75.47 Security Management upgrade to R77 Technical Level
Solution

Notes:

  • R75.47 Security Management server / Multi-Domain Security Management server upgrade to R77 is fully supported.
  • Due to the fact that parts of R75.47 fixes are not included in R77, upgrade of R75.47 Security Gateway to R77 is not supported. Nevertheless, customers can perform a clean install of a Security Gateway with R77 to replace the R75.47 if needed.

Important note: The following resolved issues relevant to Security Management server / Multi-Domain Management were fixed in R75.47 and are NOT a part of R77.

Sync with UserCenter

Customers who chose to periodically synchronize their server and gateway data with UserCenter (under Help > Sync with UserCenter) may notice that their data is no longer synchronized automatically after the upgrade from R75.47 to R77.

To make sure that the periodic synchronization continues to work as before, after the upgrade is over, go to SmartDashboard >  Global Properties > Security Management Access and verify that the option "Improve Product experience by sending information to Check Point" is selected.

 This solution is about products that are no longer supported and it will not be updated
