New deployment of the FortiProxy VM

The minimum memory size for the FortiProxy VM for 7.0.4 or later is 4 GB. You must have at least 4 GB of memory to allocate to the FortiProxy VM from the VM host.

A new FortiProxy VM license file was introduced in the FortiProxy 2.0.6 release. This license file cannot be used for FortiProxy 2.0.5 or earlier. Do not downgrade the FortiProxy 2.0.6 VM because the new VM license cannot be used by earlier versions of the FortiProxy VM.

Upgrading the FortiProxy VM

You can upgrade to FortiProxy 2.0.5 from earlier FortiProxy releases or you can upgrade from FortiProxy 2.0.6 to a higher version. You cannot upgrade from FortiProxy 2.0.5 because of the new FortiProxy VM license file that was introduced in the FortiProxy 2.0.6 release.

To upgrade FortiProxy VM to 2.0.5, or from 2.0.6 and later:

1. Back up the configuration from the GUI or CLI. Make sure the VM license file is stored on the PC or FTP or TFTP server.

2. Shut down the original VM.

3. Deploy the new VM. Make sure that there is at least 4 GB of memory to allocate to the VM.

4. From the VM console, configure the interface, routing, and DNS for GUI or CLI access to the new VM and its access to FortiGuard.

6. Restore the configuration using the CLI or GUI.
