And in case you missed it because it's buried, Nokia recommends turning off
the UserAuthority and Policy Server packages before upgrading to AI. This
was in the R54 release notes and they told me it also applies to R55. I did
it and they both were automatically enabled after the upgrade reboot.

On an IP530 it took about 20 minutes to upgrade from FP3 to R55 using
SmatUpdate. I had upgraded IPSO previously.

Hi Remi,

Go ahead and upgrade to R55, no need for Hotfixes. Anyways, they just
released a new Hotfix accumulator for R55, so apply that after you
upgrade.

As for Nokia IPSO build no, go with Nokia's recommendation and not
Checkpoint's. Nokia is responsible for this part, so their documentation
is the more accurate one. Checkpoint and Nokia are very close and
therefore Checkpoint depend on Nokia to carry out their own tests etc.

And remember, when upgrading, upgrade the Smartcenter/Management Server
first and then the Firewall (assuming it is a distributed environment).

Best of Luck

Hi,

I'm running NGAI_R54 with IPSO 3.7 and I would like to upgrade to
NGAI_R55.

As 2 hotfixes are available for NGAI_R54, I wonder if they are included
in
NGAI_R55 (the documentation doesn't mention this) or should I apply the
hotfixes before the upgrade ?

Another question is that nokia documentation specifies NGAI_R55 is
available
only for ipso 3.7 build 032 but checkpoint documentation doesn't specify
any
build number.

Thanks,

Remi
