Upgrade from 6.2.0

Hi

 

I wish to upgrade from 6.2.0 but have read there are loads of issue in next versions, can anyone recommend a stable version to move to.

 

Many Thanks

Nick.

Try 6.2.6. For last a couple days after it's been released on Thu, nobody is screaming for major issues so far. It would be better if you could wait and keep watching at any reports for a week or two.

We skipped 6.2.x and jumped to 6.4.x (currently 6.4.3).  More features and it seems to be more stable code from everything I've heard.  (Just don't do 6.4.1 - lots of bugs until 6.4.2)

personally i would not go the 6.4 route yet, it remains the latest version and Fortinet will be more quickly with just removing things or introducing new things which break stuff.

 

within 6.2 6.2.4 was fine if you don't use the DoS profile, hopefully 6.2.6 will proof really fixing all serious issues.

 

do remember to take the correct upgrade steps, not jumping from 6.2.0 to 6.2.6 in one go, but first determine the correct path.

HI, as 6.2.6. has been in a while now, have you heard of any issues.

there is 6.2.7 already, 6.2.6 has some bad ike daemon issues, so i would skip that if you use VPNs.
