R81.10 it's out of support?

[RemoteUser]

Hi guys,
I have a CloudGuard cluster checkpoint connected to VMware R81.10. Is support about to expire?

This is also for the virtual gateway? 

[Chris_Atkinson]

Unless stated otherwise it's for the software version across all platforms virtual/physical (excl spark).

Suggest engaging your local account team in a discussion around this if there are concerns.

Hey brother,

I also verified its what Chris sent, thats the official info. Regardless of the platform, its more related to the actual software code end of support.

Hey brother,

Just for the context, any major fw vendor out there I know will give people ample time to upgrade once version is deemed no longer supported. This includes Check Point as well, of course.
