Older Version Of Sophos Home XG

Is there a way to download the older version of sophos XG firewall home edition. my firewall died and my backup is for an older version.

Thanks

Hi,

probably means your backup is a later version, because encryption added until after 5.5.

I have been able to restore a 5.5 backup to 5.7. I was not able to restore later backups until manually created one, somehow the mailed backups were corrupted.

Does anyone know how to work around the error "please upgrade ips and application signatures for this restore" when attempted to restore from a backup?

Firmware patterns show successful update as of 9/23/2019.

Is it looking for a specific file? I've rebooted several times.

I'm sure folks that have this device in production can't be waiting to update signatures before they can restore a backup. Seems sort of backwards to me. but that is just my 2cents.

Thanks for all responses.

Hi Bobby,

I did a search of the KBAs and came up with this one, though I know there are other threads/posts on this subject.

https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/123144

I don't think it provides the answer you are looking for though because your XG shows the latest firmware, but for which packages?

Yeah. That KB really didn't help my situation. So I found an older backup to use and that worked. It's missing a few rules but atleast i'm not starting from scratch.

Again, thanks for the assistance.

Many Regards,
