FortiAnalyzer firmware upgrade from FortiGuard servers

You can upgrade FortiAnalyzer firmware by using images available on FortiGuard servers. A green checkmark beside the available firmware images indicates the recommended FortiAnalyzer upgrade path. You can also upgrade to a firmware image that is not recommended if desired.

To upgrade FortiAnalyzer firmware in the GUI:
  1. Go to System Settings.
  2. In the System Information widget, beside Firmware Version, click Update Firmware.

    The Firmware Management dialog box opens.

  3. From the FortiGuard Firmware box, select the version of FortiAnalyzer for the upgrade, and click OK.

    The FortiGuard Firmware box displays all FortiAnalyzer firmware images available for upgrade. A green checkmark displays beside the recommended image for FortiAnalyzer upgrade.

    Note

    Because this image was captured before the release of FortiAnalyzer 6.4.0, a green checkmark is not yet available.

    If you select an image without a green checkmark, a confirmation dialog box is displayed. Click OK to continue.

    FortiAnalyzer downloads the firmware image from FortiGuard.

    FortiAnalyzer uses the downloaded image to update its firmware, and then restarts.

    After FortiAnalyzer restarts, the upgrade is complete.
