Updating the VPN client

By updating the Cybels VPN client, you can upgrade to a newer version of the software while preserving the settings and VPN configuration.

Similarly to an installation, an update requires local administration privileges.

The previous version does not need to be uninstalled before launching the update.

Manual update

• After you have downloaded the package, run the application

• Follow the step-by-step instructions in the installation wizard

The Cybels VPN client starts automatically once the update is complete.

Managed update

• If you are using a group policy (GPO)/EMM/MDM, ask your system administrator for advice on configuration.

• In command line (local administrator privileges required)

  • After you have downloaded the MSI package, open the Windows command prompt.

  • Go to the folder containing the downloaded package

  • Run the following command to start the deployment:

    msiexec /i "CybelsVPN_Setup.msi" /qn /norestart

Command details:

• /i: Installs or updates the product.

• /qn: "Quiet No UI" mode (completely silent installation as a background task).

• /norestart: Prevents the system from restarting automatically if a restart is required (optional).

The Cybels VPN client starts automatically once the update has been installed.
