Migration from XG430 to XGS4500

Hello Team,

I am explaining my case to you in order to receive the best advice from you as Sophos experts. I have my Sophos XG430 SFOS 20.0.0 GA Build 222 in production as a perimeter firewall (I only use 2 WAN ports and 1 LAN), this equipment allows 2 VPN connections:
1- VPN SSL Remote Access: Users who still use the traffic light VPN application and some who are already updating to the Sophos Connect application
2- Site to Site with SSL VPN: We have 30 locations, 24 locations with Sophos XG126 SFOS 20.0.2 MR-2 Build 378 and 6 locations with XG105 v 17.5.5 MR-5.

We have acquired the new Sophos XGS4500 and we need to do the migration but before that I think it would be very useful to share this so that you can give me your best recommendations before doing this activity.

An additional fact is that I was told that the old administrators did a firmware upgrade of the XG430 to version 20.0.2 but for some reason only the users with the traffic light VPN lost connection and the SSL VPNs of the 6 XG105 went down without being able to resolve it, due to which they had to return to the version.

Please, give me your comments, advice, some explanation regarding the firmware update experience that I mentioned to you since the objective is for the new Sophos XGS4500 to have its latest updated firmware.

Thank you very much.
