UserGate always does its best to deliver the top-quality software and regularly issues UserGate updates for all subscribers of the Security Update licensing module (for details on licensing, please refer to UserGate licensing). Once a new update is available, the system will display the corresponding notification in the Device management section. Since installing UserGate updates may take some time, it is recommended that you schedule it beforehand to avoid unplanned downtimes.

Step 1. Create a new backup file |
Make a backup of UserGate's current state as described in Backing up and restoring initial settings. It is recommended that you perform this step before each update, so that you could recover the system in case of any faults during installation of updates. |
Step 2. Install updates |
In the Device management section, find the Updates are available notification and click Install now. Once all the downloaded updates are installed, UserGate will reboot. |
Important! In order to update the configuration cluster nodes, make sure that all nodes are enabled and available when the first node is being updated. Nodes that are not available when the first node is being updated must be added to the cluster again after updates.
