Note

If you have a 9.x Manager managing 9.x NTBA, you should consider upgrading 9.x Manager to 10.1 or 11.1. If you plan to upgrade the Manager to 11.1, you need to first upgrade it to 10.1.7.65 and then to 11.1.

Upgrade support

Upgrade paths for Manager software versions

Note

Before you start upgrading to the latest 11.1 Manager version, ensure that you do not change the timestamp and timezone values of the Manager.

Caution

  • The Manager software supports only TLS 1.2 ciphers for Manager and Sensor communication.

  • If you are currently using Sensor software version that supports TLS 1.0 and you upgrade your Manager software to 11.1.7.136, the communication between the Manager and Sensor will fail. Therefore, you must first upgrade the Sensor to a software version that supports TLS 1.2 and later upgrade your Manager to 11.1.7.136. Post this, you may upgrade the Sensor to 11.1.7.136. Please refer to KB96194 for more information and contact Trellix Support for assistance.

Note

  • After the upgrade, the Linux-based Manager reboots automatically. If it fails to reboot, check the installation logs for errors and reboot the Manager manually.

  • Trellix recommends to keep SSH keepalive configuration enabled in your SSH client (for example, Bitvise) to avoid session termination in the Linux-based Manager and maintain a stable connection during the Manager upgrade process.

  • For all direct upgrades to 11.1.7.136, use the IPSM_1117136_setup.bin Version 11.1.7.136 upgrade file.

  • Only Linux-based Manager upgrades are supported for all Public Cloud releases.

Upgrade paths for Sensor software versions

Virtual IPS Sensor software (IPS-VM600, IPS-VM5000, IPS-VM600-SSL, IPS-VM600-VSS-SSL, and IPS-VM5000-SSL):

Caution

  • The Manager software supports only TLS 1.2 ciphers for Manager and Sensor communication.

  • If you are currently using Sensor software version that supports TLS 1.0 and you upgrade your Manager software to 11.1.7.136, the communication between the Manager and Sensor will fail. Therefore, you must first upgrade the Sensor to a software version that supports TLS 1.2 and later upgrade your Manager to 11.1.7.136. Post this, you may upgrade the Sensor to 11.1.7.136.
