Version Specific Requirements
Logpoint v7.5.0
If your CPU doesn't support AVX you won’t be able to install Logpoint 7.5.0. Check if your CPU supports AVX using the following command:
If there is no output after running the command, your CPU doesn’t support AVX.
Logpoint v7.3.0
Logpoint 7.3.0 patch upgrade requires Netplan for network configuration. Logpoint automatically migrates to Netplan during the v7.2.0 upgrade, but in some unsuccessful cases, manual migration is required. To learn how to migrate, go to Netplan Migration in Logpoint.
Logpoint v7.0.0
Due to the large size of the patch file, you must upload it from the console using the uploadpatch command before installing it from the UI.
Patch Installation
You can either upload the patch update files using the uploadpatch li-admin command (go to: upload patch for more information) or install the patch update directly from the UI. Updates allow you to upload and install new patch files to keep your Logpoint up to-date and secure. It displays the description, status, release date, installation date and time, and checksum of the installed packages. To view the status of patch uploads and installations, click Jobs in Updates. Click on the status of each package to view its install logs. In distributed Logpoint, you cannot switch between multiple Logpoints from Updates. Go to System Settings and use the DLP Selector.
Installing an update
Go to Logpoint Help Center and download the required patch update file provided in .pak format.
Go to Settings >> System Settings from the navigation bar and click Updates.
Click Upload Patch.
Browse to the previously downloaded patch update file and click Upload.
Click the Install Update icon in Actions.
Netplan Migration in Logpoint
Netplan is a network configuration utility for Linux operating systems that uses YAML files to define configuration. Using YAML files makes it simple to manage network interfaces, IP addresses, and other network settings.
Logpoint uses it from v7.2.0 onwards. Logpoint will stop supporting network configurations not based on Netplan in an upcoming release. We recommend migrating your network configurations to Netplan.
When installing 7.2.0, existing network configuration are migrated to YAML format and verified to see if they work as expected. If the migration fails, users should set their network configuration manually by configuring a YAML file with the netplan-apply command. Users can also use this command to update existing network configuration after upgrading Logpoint.
Network Configuration Using Netplan
To configure networks in Logpoint, you must first create a YAML file that details their setup with the correct indentation. The YAML file must contain a description of the network interfaces, IP addresses, and the paths to the network configuration backend that should be used for each device. After you are done configuring the YAML file, pass it with the netplan-apply command in a terminal to set your network configuration.
Example:
Sample YAML file:
For more examples of the YAML descriptions, go to Netplan Configuration Examples. Plan properly before you write YAML descriptions, an incorrect YAML file can cause network disruptions or complete network outages. Contact support in case of an outage or disruption.
You can verify the installed version from Help >> About Logpoint in the navigation bar.
