Title: 26.1 - Success
Post by: spetrillo on February 02, 2026, 06:27:47 PM
Hello all,

I have upgraded 3 firewalls to 26.1 and they all have been successful. This is the first time in at least 2 years where I did not have an issue with the upgrade, so kudos to the team. On 2 of the 3 firewalls I have also migrated my firewall rules...all without issue. The 3rd is a production firewall and will be done in my upgrade window next weekend.

Way to go team!

Steve

I have upgraded a test bed and an internal router, including successful migration of rules (yes Franco, we all charge in). I will probably do the critical edge firewall today. Being able to snapshot the working 25.7 and then the base 26.1 before rule migration provides nice security, or encourages diving in.

By all means.  :)

Feedback has been invaluable so far... also noting we're on the right track here with a decade long adventure slowly approaching the inevitable finish line.  This is great.


Cheers,
Franco

Migrated the main firewall and rules successfully, today. The new rules view is a structural improvement for me, making it easer to perceive and potentially change these configurations.
