With an expired subscription, you can update your firmware locally, as long as the release date of the firmware update is lower than the expiration date.

Example:

  • The subscription expired on 01.08.2022; a local update to IGEL OS 11.07.100 (release date 29.03.2022) is STILL possible.

  • The subscription expired on 01.08.2022; a local update to IGEL OS 11.08.100 (release date 19.08.2022) is NOT possible.
