FortiSIEM Windows Agents / Linux Agents upgrade

Hi,
Would like to ask, after we upgraded FortiSIEM from v6.6 to v7.1, do we need to upgrade all the Windows Agent and Linux Agent for my devices too? Or can we keep the older version agents?

Thanks.

As a matter of principle, Collectors and Agents can be on a lower version than (Supervisors and Workers). So you do not necessarily need to upgrade the Collectors and Agents at the same time as upgrading Supervisors and Workers. 

 

However note that if the new version contains some agent features, then you have upgrade the agents to get the new features.

Don't forget to always consult the documentation @ https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortisiem/7.1.3/fortisiem-version-compatibility-matrix/597173/for... 

 

This will provide you with the versions of Collectors and Agents compatible with your SIEM Super and Worker versions.
