How To Migrate From A Legacy System To Syneto UTM

The simplest method to migrate to Syneto from Legacy is to install the latest Syneto firmware on the flash disk and load the Legacy configuration. If this is not possible the folowing crossgrade/upgrade procedure may be used. The Syneto firmware shares multiple similarities with the Legacy, and it may also be upgraded to from Legacy. These are the steps to pass from Legacy 3.x to Syneto 1.x.

Enable SSH administration on Legacy
Connect as user root to Legacy via ssh (ssh root@IP) user and download the above script. Be sure to change user and password in the command with the username and password used to log in to www.syneto.net.
- cd /volatile
- wget http://user:password@www.syneto.net/p/private_files/tools/check_for_syneto.tgz
Uncompress the archive:
- tar -zxvf check_for_syneto.tgz
Configure the download URL on the Legacy’s web interface. Sysetem->Update->Update URL
In console, run the alternative check method:
- /volatile/check_for_syneto/check
Verify if the Legacy build is supported (search for “supported versions” on kb.syneto.net while logged in). If the build is not supported, you may try to install it and force a configuration import by running this comand from ssh:
- touch /config/force_config_import
Continue the normal system upgrade procedure: Download, Save configuration, Install, Reboot.
Syneto will startup with the configuration imported from Legacy. Refresh your browser and clear your cache for best results when using the new Syneto interface.
