Gateway, HUB, and Data Diodes - GW04, GH04, DDRX, DDTX

Firmware upgrades are categorized according to their level of importance which falls into one of three categories:

  • Discretionary: release addresses specific issues. Install this upgrade if it addresses an issue you are currently experiencing.

  • Recommended: release is of general benefit. All customers should upgrade to this release as opportunity permits.

  • Required: release impacts critical product performance and should be installed as soon as possible.


This table provides the latest firmware releases for Ethernet gateways. Detailed information on specific firmware releases can be accessed by clicking on the appropriate F/W release notes link.
