2.6 Upgrade and Uninstallation - Windows

Enable remote access

This option enables full access to the WinRoute computer from a selected IP address

Remote IP address

IP address of the computer from where you will be connecting (e.g. terminal services

client). This field must contain an IP address. A domain name is not allowed.

Warning

The remote access rule is disabled automatically when WinRoute is configured using the net-

work policy wizard (see chapter

7.1

).

2.6 Upgrade and Uninstallation - Windows

Upgrade

Simply run the installation of a new version to upgrade WinRoute (i.e. to get a new release

from the Kerio Web pages —

http://www.kerio.com/

).

All windows of the Kerio Administration Console must be closed before the (un)installation is

started. All of the three WinRoute components will be stopped and closed automatically.

The installation program detects the directory with the former version and updates it by re-

placing appropriate files with the new ones automatically. License, all logs and user defined

settings are kept safely.

Note: This procedure applies to upgrades between versions of the same series (e.g. from

6.6.0 to 6.6.1) or from a version of the previous series to a version of the subsequent series

(e.g. from 6.5.2 to 6.6.0). For case of upgrades from an older series version (e.g. 6.3.1), full

compatibility of the configuration cannot be guaranteed and it is recommended to upgrade

“step by step” (e.g. 6.3.1 6.4.0 6.5.0 6.6.0) or to uninstall the old version along with all
files and then install the new version “from scratch”.

Update Checker

WinRoute enables automatic checks for new versions of the product at the Kerio Technologies

website. Whenever a new version is detected, its download and installation will be offered

automatically.

For details, refer to chapter

16.3

.

Uninstallation

To uninstall WinRoute, stop all three WinRoute components. The Add/Remove Programs

option in the Control Panel launches the uninstallation process. All files under the WinRoute

directory can be optionally deleted.

(the typical path is C:\Program Files\Kerio\WinRoute Firewall)

— configuration files, SSL certificates, license key, logs, etc.
