Upgrading NetExtender
NetExtender can be configured by the administrator to automatically notify users when an
updated version of NetExtender is available. Users are prompted to click OK and NetExtender
downloads and installs the update from the SonicWALL security appliance.
If auto-update notification is not configured, users should periodically launch NetExtender from
the Virtual Office to ensure they have the latest version. Check with your administrator to
determine if you need to manually check for updates.
