To upgrade Wanguard and Wansight to version 8.4, please follow these steps in the given order:

1. Upgrade unsupported operating systems
   ▪ If you're running CentOS 8, upgrade to Rocky 8 or AlmaLinux 8. CentOS 8 has reached End Of Life and is no longer supported.
   ▪ Debian 8, Debian 9 and Ubuntu 16 have also reached End Of Life. Upgrade to at least Debian 10 or Ubuntu 18.
   ▪ If upgrading the distribution is no longer possible, follow the Console transfer steps to copy the data to a new system.
2. Log in to the web interface
   ▪ Go to Configuration » Components and stop all components.
3. Log out of the web interface
   ▪ Select your user menu from the top-right corner and choose Log Out.
4. Stop the WANsupervisor service on all servers:
   [root@localhost:~]# systemctl stop WANsupervisor
5. Update the Capture Engine (if applicable)
   ▪ If you’re using PF_RING, update it to PF_RING 8.8.
   ▪ If you're using Netmap, update it to a Git version from around December 2024.
   ▪ If you're using DPDK, update it to version 24.11.
   
6. Upgrade the software packages, starting with the Console server
   ▪ Important: Do not upgrade the Linux distribution at this point (e.g., from Ubuntu 18 to 20).
