Who will need to downgrade?

Does this effect users with license in place?

I am running the latest version 3, I have a version 3 license in the radio. Does this message require any action from me to continue with SmartLink today, tomorrow and next week?

    To me it sounds like you will need to go back to go forward again.   So there will be an extra step and download once they figure it out or do the license update. So instead of 5 minutes to do an upgrade it will take 7 minutes.

    I believe what Tim is saying is if you attempt to upgrade before the new security policy updated version is available it will not be licensed, then you will need to revert back to the previous version to continue using your radio.

    Sorry for the missing reference
    The message from Tim about license  server issues.
    There was no reply opportunity on that message.

    Never mind.  I just received the message from Flex.  I understand Lyndy's confusion.

    I'm guessing its safe to assume those already running v3.1.7 are fine, and a soon-to-be released software security upgrade is on the way.

    Tim's statement is confusing.  If I have 3.1.7 already installed and running do I have to revert?

    I have 2.6.0. Do I need to first go back to 2.5.1 before upgrading? The message is a bit confusing.

    The problem only affected those trying to pull new licenses down from our license server.  If you are already licensed, this is not going to affect you.
