How to replace smart-1 525 R80.20 as 600-S R81.20 with 5-6 gateways SIC-communicating

[saitoh]

Hi engineers,

I am assigned replacement of Smart-1, and have to make it clear how to correctly do it.

My brief experience says I just disconnect the current SIC, replace Smart-1 with new one, and redo SIC.

Is that right?

That would be appreciated if you provide me with some documents about it.

No need to redo SIC, follow the Advanced Migration steps in the R81.20 Install and Upgrade guide and you'll be fine.

Dear emmap,

Thanks for sharing the name of the document I should look up!

I should have searched for it to the more extent...

Personally, I never had tore-do SIC when doing process like this. Not saying it would never be needed, but usually its not required.

If you do an Advanced Migration to the new Smart-1 and push policy to the gateways from the new Smart-1, SIC will be established to the new Smart-1 going forward.

Dear PhoneBoy,

Thank you for the information about how SIC is established after migration!
