Important – Compatibility

The new product versions eLux RP 6.5.0 and Scout Enterprise 15.5.0 offer an improved encryption method for device passwords in addition to the certificate-based management protocol via IP port 22125 with end-to-end encryption (TLS). As a result, Scout Enterprise 15.5.0 is compatible with eLux RP 5, eLux RP 6.2 and later versions, but not with eLux RP 6.0 and eLux RP 6.1. eLux RP 6.5 clients can be managed through Scout Enterprise Management Suite 15.1.0 and later versions.

An overview of all versions can be found in our Compatibility matrix.

 

Security updates

Further security updates to fix the Intel and AMD processor vulnerabilities are included in the release of eLux RP 6.5.0 LTSR. The updates consist of patches for the Linux kernel and processor microcode updates for AMD and Intel chipsets.
