Why should you replace discontinued hardware?

The affected hardware has been in continuous operation for a good 10 years or more 24x7. Due to the high age, the probability of failure has risen sharply.

We therefore recommend replacing the affected hardware promptly with a current model.

Your software license can be used unchanged with new hardware. For the purchase of new hardware please contact your contact your Intra2net sales partner.

The configuration, e-mails and other data can be simply be transferred to your new hardware. Instructions for transferring the data can be found here.

What happens if you continue to operate discontinued hardware after Dec. 31, 2016?

Cancelled is the certification of the hardware. This means that Intra2net will no longer check whether new new versions are still compatible with the discontinued hardware. It is therefore likely that a future software update will fail and your system will no longer be functional as a result.

New software updates include security and antivirus updates, as well as new features. This guarantees you high security, new innovations and protection against viruses. We therefore strongly advise not to install new software updates.
