Upgrading VMSS GW's

John_Richards — Tue, 13 Sep 2022 23:00:07 GMT

I reviewed the upgrade information in the "CloudGuard Network for Azure VMSS R80.10 and Higher Administration Guide". The 14th of August 2019 was the last time the upgrade information was updated. Just curious if this is still the recommended process for upgrading the VMSS or is there an updated procedure? The VMSS GW's are R80.40 and the SMS is R81.10. Thanks

That procedure should still work.

Thanks. That SK does not apply to VMSS GW's. I was trying to avoid building a test VMSS environment to verify the procedure.
