2.8 Upgrade - Software Appliance / VMware Virtual Appliance
WinRoute
can be upgraded by the following two methods:
•
by starting the system from the installation CD (or a mounted ISO) of the new version.
The installation process is identical with the process of a new installation with an the
only exception that at the start the installer asks you whether to execute an upgrade
(any existing data will be kept) or a new installation (all configuration files, statistics,
logs, etc will be removed). For details, see chapter
.
•
by the
Kerio Administration Console
update checker. For details, refer to chapter
2.9 WinRoute Components
WinRoute
consists of the following modules:
WinRoute Firewall Engine
WinRoute Firewall Engine is the core of the program that provides all services and func-
tions. It is running as a service in the operating system (the service is called
Kerio
WinRoute Firewall
and it is run automatically within the system account by default).
WinRoute Engine Monitor (Windows only)
Allows viewing and modification of the
Engine’s
status (stopped / running) and setting
of start-up preferences (i.e. whether
Engine
and
Monitor
should be run automatically at
system start-up). It also provides easy access to the
Administration Console
. For details,
refer to chapter
.
Note: WinRoute Firewall Engine
is independent on the
WinRoute Engine Monitor
. The
Engine
can be running even if there is no icon in the system tray.
Kerio Administration Console (Windows only)
It is a versatile console for full local or remote administration of
Kerio Technologies
server
products. For successful connection to an application you need a plug-in with an appro-
priate interface.
Kerio Administration Console
is installed on
Windows
hand-in-hand with the appropriate
module during the installation of
Kerio WinRoute
. The separate installation package
Kerio
Administration Console
for
WinRoute
is available for remote administration from another
host. The
Kerio Administration Console
is available for
Windows
only, but it can be used
for administration of both
WinRoute
installed on
Windows
and
Kerio WinRoute Firewall
Software Appliance / VMware Virtual Appliance
.
Detailed guidance for
Kerio Administration Console
is provided in
Kerio Administration
Console — Help

The firewall’s console (Software Appliance / VMware Virtual Appliance only)
The firewall’s console is a simple interface permanently running on the
WinRoute
host. It
allows to set basic parameters of the operating system and the firewall for cases when it
is not possible to administer it remotely via the
Web Administration
interface or the
Kerio
Administration Console
.
