Updating Firebox X Edge Software
One benefit of your LiveSecurity® Service is ongoing software
updates. As new threats appear and WatchGuard adds product
enhancements, you receive alerts to let you know about new ver-
sions of your Firebox® X Edge software.
When you receive the alert, WatchGuard gives you instructions on
how to download the software to your personal computer. After this
download is complete, use the following instructions to update your
Firebox software:
1 Type the IP address of the trusted network in your browser
window to connect to the System Status page of the Firebox X
Edge.
The default IP address is https://192.168.111.1.
2 At the bottom of the System Status page, click Update.
The Administration Page appears with the End User License Agreement
(EULA). You can also go to this page by selecting Administration >
Update from the navigation bar at left.
