hi,

some customers run R55P on ipso 4.1
that runs fine.

to get support on that you have to open a tac-case and ask for limited availability of this combination.

I have no idea of FP3 and ipso 4.1 - but just contact nokia-support and ask them.

for all others: if someone asks for FP3-support on ipso 4.1 this is not an idiot-question, he might have good reasons to do that! you _can_ tell him that it would be better to upgrade to NG X but maybe he has a large P-1 setup and an upgrade to NG-X is not just a small step. and new nokia-hardware requires new ipso versions. and now he has a problem when he wants to add a new IP560 to his existing P-1 that is on FP3.

cheers

All,

I am not a Product Engineer but I am, unfortunately, doing this at work because the PE dude at my work place is doing stuffs that I think is wrong so here we go.

I've been reading through Nokia IPSO 4.1 release notes, specifically IPSO 4.1
  build 013, build 016 and build 019 and I found the the following:

1- On page 19 of IPSO 4.1 build 013 release note, it specifically states that this ipso build supports NGx R60. I do not see anywhere in the documentation that specifically
  states that it supports NGx R61.

2- On page 24 of IPSO 4.1 build 016 release note, it specifically states that this ipso build supports NGx R60. Again, I do not see anywhere in the documentation
  that specifically states that it supports NGx R61.

3- On page 28 of the IPSO 4.1 build 019 release note, it specifically states that it
  supports both NGx R60 and NGx R61

From what I am reading in the release notes, it seems to me that both IPSO build 013 and IPSO 4.1 build 016 are NOT certified to run Checkpoint NGx R61, and
  that only IPSO 4.1 build 019 is certified to run NGx R61.

Therefore, from reading the Nokia release notes, the combination of IPSO 4.1
  build 016 with Checkpoint NGx R61 is NOT a support configuration.

  Is that the correct interpretation?  Thanks
