Next Steps

Congratulations! You have finished basic setup of your Firebox. You can use the Web UI to

view and edit your configuration and to manage and monitor your device. Here are some

recommendations to help you get started:

Verify your Internet connectivity

• With your Firebox installed in your network, make sure that your users can

successfully browse the Internet.

Upgrade your Firebox to the latest OS version

Keep your Firebox current with the latest version of Fireware OS. To upgrade:

1. Go to www.watchguard.com/support and click Software Downloads.
2. Find the software downloads page for the Firebox T10.
3. Download and run the installation package for the latest version of Fireware OS.

This installs an upgrade file on your computer that you must upload to the Firebox

with the Web UI.

4. In the Web UI, select System > Upgrade OS.
5. Browse to the upgrade file. The file name is T10.sysa-dl.

This installation extracts the upgrade file to the default location of C:\Program Files(x86)\

Common files\WatchGuard\resources\FirewareXTM\<version>\
On a computer with a Windows 32-bit operating system, the path is: C:\Program Files\Common
Files\WatchGuard\resources\FirewareXTM\<version>\

Explore the features and functions of your Firebox
