Client Upgrade Requirements

Client component upgrades follow the same requirements as appliance upgrades. After you upload the client hotfix to your appliance, the client-side fixes are then automatically pushed to each client system as it connects to the appliance. Depending on your environment, this can take a few days, weeks, or even months before all clients have connected and received the client-side fixes.
