Generation 6 - Limited Retirement Mode Announcement

30/04/24 10:59:00

Generation 6 firewall devices will reach Limited Retirement Mode on 20 April 2024.  From this date SonicWall will no longer develop or release firmware updates or new features for Gen 6 devices. 

20 April 2024 is the last date to purchase a 2 Year subscription service to ensure your device remains eligible for support until the End of Support (End of Life) date of 16 April 2026.

You can also beat the increasing cost of annual license fees by switching to affordable monthly billing at renewal.  Commit to 3 months and then enjoy the benefits of a rolling contract whilst maximising the lifespan of your device.


Which devices are included?

The generation 6 devices reaching LRM this month are; SOHO 250w, TZ600p, TZ600, TZ500w, TZ500, TZ400w, TZ400, TZ350w, TZ350, TZ300p, NSA9650, NSA9450, NSA9250, NSA6650, NSA5650, NSA4650, NSA3650, NSA2650
