Thanks Ray...
I have been burned few times with the Libsw...and the Edge boxes, that is why I
check Libsw first.

Hi Thomas,
I cannot comment on the specifics you're seeing, however when I took my
SmartCenter from R55/libsw 7.0.33 to R62/bundled libsw files, it broke my
Edge boxes. All of them immediately started blocking all traffic the first
time they grabbed a policy on their own.
I had followed the release notes tip (or maybe it was the upgrade guide tip)
to copy over the old policy files from the \tmp folder before the first
SmartCenter reboot, but it didn't make any difference. As soon as I
installed the 7.0.33 libsw files and pushed the policy, everything started
working again.
Take care,
Ray
