WATCHGUARD SYSTEM MANAGER 8.0 AND FIREWARE PRO RC2 – (3542/4049/7.4)
RELEASE NOTES APRIL 5, 2005 PAGE 3
5. There are two folders that the installation software fails to delete. You must remove these folders. The two
folders are:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\WatchGuard
C:\Program Files\WatchGuard\wsm8
Beta9
You must use eth1 when you configure a Firebox X Peak with Quick Setup Wizard or the fbxinstall.exe utility.
Beta10
You must upgrade all Firebox devices which use Fireware Pro to a Beta10 or later version of the appliance
software. A management station with Beta10 or later software can not manage a Firebox appliance with Beta9 or
earlier Fireware.
Resolved Issues
Issues Fixed in Beta10
 When you upgrade your management station to WSM 8.0, the installation utility automatically gets your VPN
Manager key from your previous installation.
[5300]
 The display of tunnel information in WatchGuard System Manager matches the display in Firebox System
Manager.
[883]
 The QuickSetup Wizard help is complete. [502]
 Policy Manager operates correctly when you change the IP address of the interface which the management
station uses to connect to the Firebox.

Issues Fixed in Beta9
 You can use the fbxinstall.exe utility to upgrade from beta to beta. [4364, 4365]
 You can import an MUVPN configuration file (*.wgx) which includes a WatchGuard RSA certificate. [4311]
 Firebox devices with WFS 7.3 or earlier can send log messages to a WSM 8.0 Log Server. However,
Fireboxes with WFS 7.4 or Fireware 8.0 can not send log messages to a WatchGuard Security Event
Processor 7.3 or earlier. This is by design and the documentation now clearly explains it.
[4367]
 You must use eth1 when you configure the Firebox X Peak with Quick Setup Wizard or the fbxinstall.exe
utility.
[5055]
Issues Fixed in Beta8
 It is not necessary to restart the Firebox after you change the TCP Maximum Segment Size setting. [4591]
 With this beta, the documentation is content complete. You can find the documentation in the
Documentation folder of your installation directory. We welcome your review and comment. These documents
are currently in technical review with WatchGuard Engineering:
[4362]
- WatchGuard System Manager User Guide
- Fireware Configuration Guide
- WFS Configuration Guide
- Reference Guide
 There is no longer a long interval between the time you make an IPSec tunnel and the time a Firebox X Edge
or Firebox SOHO6 connects to the Management Server.
[4445]
 When the remote gateway is a Firebox SOHO6 or Firebox X Edge and the WAN speed is high, an IPSec rekey
negotiation is shorter than 20 seconds and no longer disrupts traffic.
