Next Steps
Congratulations! You have finished basic setup of your Firebox. You can use the Web UI
to view and edit your configuration and to manage and monitor your device. Or, you can
download and install WatchGuard System Manager (WSM) and use Policy Manager and the
WSM suite of management and monitoring tools. Here are some recommendations to help
you get started:
Verify your Internet connectivity
• With your Firebox installed in your network, make sure that your users can
successfully browse the Internet.
Get the latest software
To get the latest version of WSM and Fireware OS:
1. Go to www.watchguard.com/support and click Software Downloads.
2. Find the software downloads page for the Firebox M440 and select the software
you want to install.
To upgrade the Firebox OS:
1. Download and run the installation package for the latest version of Fireware OS.
This installs an upgrade file on your computer that you must upload to the Firebox
with the Web UI or Policy Manager.
2. If you use the Web UI, select System > Upgrade. If you use Policy Manager, select
File > Upgrade. The file name is M440.sysa-dl.
This installation extracts the upgrade file to the default location of C:\Program Files(x86)\
Common files\WatchGuard\resources\FirewareXTM\<version>\
