Dear Customers,
Due to technical reasons, we need to perform an urgent server migration on August 30th, 2024. This will specifically affect the following servers:
- update1.nextron-systems.com
- update2.nextron-systems.com
The FQDNs will remain the same, but the underlying IP addresses will change. This migration is part of our ongoing efforts to improve service performance and security.
What does this mean for you?
If your firewall has access rules that rely on the current IP addresses, these need to be updated to the new IP addresses. If your firewall rules are not dependent on the IP addresses, this change will not affect you, and operations will continue seamlessly.
List of Update Servers and New IP Addresses
Below is the list of update servers with their respective IP changes. The servers:
- update1.nextron-systems.com
- update2.nextron-systems.com
will be updated on August 30th, 2024.
The IP address changes for the other update servers will occur later, with a more comfortable deadline to adjust by October 7th, 2024:
