Update Your Configuration from a Non-
Windows Platform

If you are managing your SOHO from a computer running a 
operating system platform other than Windows (such as a 
Macintosh or Linux OS), you must update your firmware from this 
configuration page as firmware versions are released.  This is 
because WatchGuard installation applications are built for 
Windows only.  
Follow these steps to perform this procedure:

1

With your Web browser, go to the SOHO System Status page

For example, if using the default IP address, go to: http://192.168.111.1

2

From the navigation bar on the left side, select Administration 
=> Update.

The Update page appears.

Read through the End-User License Agreement document, 
then enable the I accept the above license agreement checkbox

If you do not know the location of the firmware files, click the 
Browse button to browse your computer’s directories and 
select them.

Click  the  Update button.
