Upgrading NSX Network Detection and Response

Upgrading the NSX Network Detection and Response feature occurs only when you upgrade the NSX Application Platform.

To upgrade NSX Application Platform, see "Upgrade the NSX Application Platform" topic in the Deploying and Managing the VMware NSX Application Platform document in the VMware NSX Documentation set.

Prerequisites for Upgrading to 4.2

• In 4.2, a totally new version of NSX Network Detection and Response is delivered with NSX Application Platform.
  Important: Data will not migrate from the earlier NSX Network Detection and Response versions to 4.2. The action is permanent and results in loss of previously collected NSX Network Detection and Response data.
• You must have an Advanced form factor configured in the NSX Application Platform. Update your existing form factor to the Advanced form factor in the NSX Application Platform as described in the Update the Form Factor topic in the Deploying and Managing the VMware NSX Application Platform in the VMware NSX Documentation set.
