Restore from 20.0.3 to 21 GA on XGS118

Question

Hi, 
 I am trying to perform a restore to my new XGS118 from the latest backup on the XG115W. The XG115W is running v20.0.3 MR-3 and the options on the XGS118 are v20.0.2 MR-2 or V20 GA. 
 Do I need to download and instal v20.0.3 MR3 to the XGS118? 
 How do I perform a restore?

Backups always store the Firmware version. You cannot perform a "downgrade". 
 MR3 is a newer version than V21.0 GA. Therefore the only upgade is to V20.0 MR3.

Hello, 
 The backup restore compatibility available here: 
 https://docs.sophos.com/nsg/sophos-firewall/reference/backup_restore/port_mapping/en-us/index.html 
 Since your XG115W is running with v20 MR 3. The restoring device should also be running with the version v20 MR 3 or higher.
