Upgrading SSL VPN client - is it automatic?

dagibbs — Tue, 24 May 2011 06:08:20 GMT

Hi.

I've noticed that the SSL VPN client 1.3.0 has been released.

Currently, I have 1.2.0 active on my PA's.

If I activate the 1.3.0 release, what impact will this have on the clients? Will the upgrade be seamless and automatic, or will it require interevention (especially in the case of 64 bit Windows clients).

Anyone done this and can shed some light?

Thanks

The upgrade should be automatic, I think I remember reading that you may need to clear the java cache if the update fails.

This is the known issu about netconnect in the release notes

[21601] NetConnect may not upgrade properly from 1.1.x to 1.2 without clearing the Java cache.

Well, I'm planning to go from 1.2 to 1.3, so I guess I'll just have to suck it and see.

Thanks.

No, I haven't actually been allowed to do this yet - my change management department is giving me fits, and to be honest I've had more important things to deal with, so this has been put on the back-burner.

If I do it successfully, I'll post an addendum to this message chain.

Cheers
