upgrading from FWSM 2.3->3.2 and Running activation key

During upgrade from 2.3 to 3.2, is the running activation key automatically imported into the new version ?

Or do I have to key it from the new version.

Thanks for your comments

The activation key will be carried over when upgrading, but as in any upgrade procedure backup your activation key and 2.3 config as a precaution measure

Only when downgrading is where you have to pay attention from 3.2 to 2.3 activation key may be reseted based on the feature sets.

More detailed information on these two links.

Applies for 3.2
