Menu path: Setup > System > Firmware Customization > Features

Using this list of available services, you can quickly enable or disable firmware components such as Powerterm, Media Player etc.

If a service was disabled, the associated session type will no longer be available after a reboot. Existing sessions will not be shown but will not be deleted either.

See also Disabling Features to Reduce Firmware Size.


A disabled session type will not be updated during a firmware update. You should therefore disable unused services in order to speed up update processes.
