## Update a standalone sensor version

The following procedure describes how to update a standalone sensor by using the sensor console.
291+
This procedure describes how to update a standalone sensor version. If you are upgrading from a version higher than 22.1.x, you can jump straight to [Update your sensor software version](#update-your-sensor-software-version).
292+
293+
However, if you're upgrading from a version earlier than 22.1.x, make sure to [Download a new activation file for version 22.1.x or higher](#download-a-new-activation-file-for-version-221x-or-higher) before you upgrade, and then [reactivate your sensor](#reactivate-your-sensor-for-version-221x-or-higher) after upgrading.
294+
295+
Updates from legacy versions may require a series of upgrades. For example, if you still have a sensor version 3.1.1 installed, you'll need to first upgrade to version 10.5.5, and then to a 22.x version.
296+
297+
### Download a new activation file for version 22.1.x or higher
298+
299+
Version [22.1.x ](release-notes.md#update-to-version-221x) is a large upgrade with more complicated background processes. You should expect this upgrade to take more time than earlier upgrades have required.

1. Update your firewall rules between the sensor and the Azure portal. For more information, see [Sensor access to Azure portal](how-to-set-up-your-network.md#sensor-access-to-azure-portal).

If you're upgrading from version 10.5.x to version 22.x, make sure to reactivate your sensor. For more information, see [Reactivate a sensor for upgrades to version 22.x from a legacy version](how-to-manage-sensors-on-the-cloud.md#reactivate-a-sensor-for-upgrades-to-version-22x-from-a-legacy-version).

### Reactivate your sensor for version 22.1.x or higher
336+
337+
If you're upgrading from a legacy version to version 22.1.x or higher, make sure to reactivate your sensor using the activation file you downloaded earlier.
338+

1. On your sensor, select **System settings > Sensor management > Subscription & Mode Activation**.

After upgrading to version 22.1.x, the new upgrade log can be found at the following path, accessed via SSH and the *cyberx_host* user: `/opt/sensor/logs/legacy-upgrade.log`.

1. In the **Subscription & Mode Activation** pane that appears on the right, select **Select file**, and then browse to and select your new activation file.

1. In Defender for IoT on the Azure portal, monitor your sensor's activation status. When the sensor is fully activated:
344+
345+
- The sensor's **Overview** page shows an activation status of **Valid**.
346+
- In the Azure portal, on the **Sites and sensors** page, the sensor is listed as **OT cloud connected** and with the updated sensor version.
347+
348+
Your legacy sensors will continue to appear in the **Sites and sensors** page until you delete them. For more information, see [Manage on-boarded sensors](how-to-manage-sensors-on-the-cloud.md#manage-on-boarded-sensors).
