Release 21.1 EOL and EOS
Effective December 31, 2022, Release 21.1 has reached its end of life (EOL). As of the EOL date, Versa Networks will no longer provide any software changes, either as updates or patches, for Release 21.1. This EOL notice applies to Releases 21.1 and all its subreleases, including service and patch releases.
Versa Networks will continue to provide support services for Release 21.1 until the end-of-support (EOS) date, which is December 31, 2023. After December 31, 2023, Versa Networks will stop supporting Release 21.1.
