PRTG Manual: Update a multi-platform probe
New versions of the multi-platform probe accompany PRTG stable releases, which occur about every 8 weeks. There might not be a new version of the multi-platform probe with every PRTG release. A new version of multi-platform probe is always backwards compatible with at least three versions of PRTG.
