34User Manual v16.2.1 ─ 01
In a High Availability configuration, system updates must be installed in two phases.
First, by clicking "Download" , "Install" and "Reboot" on the master system, the standby
(slave) system is updated and rebooted. If the update was successful, the former slave
takes over the master role, since the software version is newer than the software ver-
sion on the other system. Then, the former master is updated and rebooted by clicking
"Download" , "Install" and "Reboot" on the new master system. After restarting, the
new slave (former master) retains the role of standby system. Do not make changes
to the system at any point in this process.
Important: Always update both systems (master and slave). Otherwise, High Availabil-
ity does not work correctly.
If you do not have a license for one of the modules, you will see a " Get Subscription"
link in the far right column. By clicking this link, you will be redirected to our website at
cybersecurity.rohde-schwarz.com.
The "Close" button at the bottom of the updates panel allows you to shut the panel and
return to the overview of your entire configured network.
3.4.1.4 Backup
gateprotect Firewall stores settings in configuration files which are automatically cre-
ated whenever settings are changed in the web interface. The options under "Backup"
allow you to schedule regular backups, manually back up the current system configura-
tion and restore previous configurations.
For more detailed information on backups, see the following sections.
Local Backups
Local backups allow you to manually create a backup of the current firewall configura-
tion and to upload a previously downloaded backup file from your computer to restore
the system configuration.
In a High Availability configuration, backups that were created on the master system
are displayed on the standby (slave) system as well.
Navigate to "Firewall > Backup > Local Backups" to display the list of backups that are
currently available on the system in the item list bar. In the expanded view, the left col-
umn of the table displays the "Name" of an existing backup. The buttons in the last col-
umn allow you to view the details of a backup, export and restore a backup file, or
delete a backup from the system.
For further information, see Chapter 3.2, "Icons and Buttons", on page 21.
