Upgrade to 8.0 (step by step tutorial)
To upgrade Wanguard and Wansight from version 6.3 or 7.x to 8.x, please follow the steps listed below, in the presented order:
- Login in to the web interface, go to Configuration » Components and stop all components
- Logout from the web interface by selecting your user menu from the top-right part of the window
- Stop the WANsupervisor service on all servers:
service WANsupervisor stop
- If you are using PF_RING as a Capture Engine, update to PF_RING 7.6
- If you are using Netmap as a Capture Engine, update it to the latest git version
- If you are using DPDK as a Capture Engine, update it to version 19.11
-
Upgrade the software packages starting with the Console server. The Linux distribution should not be upgraded at this point (e.g. Ubuntu 18 to 20).
On Red Hat/CentOS servers upgrade the packages with:yum --disablerepo="*" --enablerepo="Andrisoft" upgrade
On Debian/Ubuntu servers, upgrade the packages with:apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade
Make sure the software is upgraded on all servers, not just on the Console server. It is very important to run the same software version everywhere. - Start the WANsupervisor service on all servers:
service WANsupervisor start
- Clear up your browser's cache
- Log in to the web interface and start the components from Configuration » Components
- Review the release notes for version 8.0
