Release Notes for Cisco IronPort AsyncOS 7.7.0 for Web
7.7.0
  Installation and Upgrade Notes
  •
Post-Upgrade Reboot
You must reboot the Web Security appliance after you upgrade AsyncOS for Web.
New License Agreement
A copy of the new license agreement is included in the Online Help. To view it, choose Help and 
Support
 > Online Help, scroll down to the end of the Contents list, and click the link for the license 
agreement.
Because the license agreement has changed, you may be required to accept the new agreement when you 
apply new feature keys after upgrading.
Sending Customer Support Requests through the Appliance
A change to Cisco IronPort Customer Support contact methods is currently in a transitional stage. When 
requested by CSE to send a support request through the Web Security Appliance to open or edit a case, 
include customercare@ironport.com in the Other Recipients field to ensure your communication is 
received.
Configuration Files
When you upgrade AsyncOS for Web from the web interface or Command Line Interface (CLI), the 
configuration is saved to file in the /configuration/upgrade directory. You can access the upgrade 
directory using an FTP client. Each configuration file name is appended with the version number, and 
passwords in the configuration file are masked so they are not human readable. 
IronPort does not generally support the backward compatibility of configuration files with previous 
major releases. Minor release support is provided. Configuration files from previous versions may work 
with later releases; however, they may require modification to load. Check with IronPort Customer 
Support if you have any questions about configuration file support.
Compatibility with IronPort AsyncOS for Security Management
Features on AsyncOS 7.7 for Web are supported by AsyncOS for Security Management version 8.0. For 
more information about compatibility between the Web Security appliance and Security Management 
appliance, see the compatibility matrix in the release notes for the Security Management appliance 
posted on the Cisco products web site: 
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps10155/prod_release_notes_list.html
Changes in Behavior
This section describes changes in behavior from previous versions of AsyncOS for Web that may affect 
the appliance configuration after you upgrade to the latest version.
