manage older 4400 Gateways using R81.10 SMS

[ABosinceanu]

Hello,

We are working for HW refresh for tow of our 4400 to 6400 will upgrade the Security Management Server to R81.10 also.

For the two 4400 that will remain active, what firmware is recommended for being able to manage them using R81.10 SMS?

Did not find yet an orientation data sheet for this topic - might be a good one, if does not exist.

Best wishes, 

Andrei

The manageable versions of code are listed in the release notes: https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/R81.10/WebAdminGuides/EN/CP_R81.10_RN/Topics-RN/Backward-Compat...

Provided the appliances are on R77.30 and above, you should be fine.
That said, I’d recommend upgrading to the most recent supported version on the 4400 (R80.40).
