Step 8: If a DynDNS was set up, please set it up again.

The migration log can be found under /root/migration_Timestamp.log.
Note for customers with the Tools module and an Advance license:
If all aliases (image on the left) – Path: Firewall → AIMdefense → settings – want to be set, the alias limit must be increased – path: Firewall → Settings → Advanced → Firewall Maximum Table Entries (screenshot below) – the default entry is empty (corresponds to 1000000) ← is not sufficient.
Technical note: In rare cases, it can happen that the login shell of existing users on AIMdefense can change to “nologin” during the update and they can no longer log in afterwards. If you are affected by this, please follow the steps below to resolve the problem:
Log in to the firewall with the “root” and change the shell for the affected users again.
Access -> Usermanagement ->Users -> Click on Edit for the affected user.
