    Hi;

     

    I am planning to upgrade my firmware from 6.2 to 6.3 (the latest version), do I need any intermediate upgrade first?  Or, I can upgrade to 6.3 release 22 directly?

     

    How can I find do I need upgrade my boot loader?

    You can upgrade directly, but be sure to verify that you have the new ScreenOS signing key on your device BEFORE the upgrade.  If you have the old key and attempt the upgrade the device can fail to boot anymore.
