Hosting a Remote Upgrade Image

After setting up a local server, go to http://updates.ironport.com/fetch_manifest.html to download a zip file of an upgrade image. To download the image, enter your serial number and the version number of the Cisco Content Security appliance. You will then be presented with a list of available upgrades. Click the upgrade version that you want to download a zip file of the upgrade image. To use the upgrade image for AsyncOS upgrades, enter the base URL for your local server on the Edit Update Settings page (or use updateconfig in the CLI).

You can also host an XML file on a local server that limits the available upgrades for the Cisco Content Security appliances on your network to the version selected at http://updates.ironport.com/fetch_manifest.html . Your Cisco Content Security appliances still download the upgrade from the Cisco servers. If you want to host the upgrade list on a local server, download the zip file and extract the asyncos/phoebe-my-upgrade.xml file to the root directory of the local server. To use the upgrade list for AsyncOS upgrades, enter the full URL for the XML file on the Edit Update Settings page (or use updateconfig in the CLI).
