1 About this guide
This guide tells you how to upgrade:
Sophos NAC Manager from version 3. 1 to version 3. 3. Sophos Anti-Virus and Sophos Client Firewall to Sophos Endpoint Security and Control 9. 0.
This guide is for you if some or all of the following statements apply:
You have Enterprise Console and NAC Manager components installed on different servers. You have Enterprise Console and EM Library installed on different servers. An error occurred during the upgrade and you need to configure the software manually.
If you have all Enterprise Console and NAC Manager components installed on a single server, or on two servers where one is dedicated to Enterprise Console and the other is dedicated to NAC, see the Sophos Endpoint Security and Control quick upgrade guide. [. . . ] Normally you subscribe to "Recommended" to ensure that your software is kept up to date automatically.

If you want to download the new version immediately, in the Update managers view, select the update manager that maintains the subscription you have changed, right-click and click Update Now. If you want to upgrade computers immediately, wait until the update manager finishes downloading the software.
