27/Sep, the new version of the Nebula will go live.
2. On 7/Sep, Zyxel will send out prior notice to every customer using USG FLEX firewall with Nebula. You will see a reminder (banner) once you logged on to the Nebula.
3. Zyxel is encouraging every customer to upgrade the firmware of their USG FLEX firewall 27/Sep onward, because you will have the flexibility to manage downtime during the operation.
4. Please be aware of the consequences, if the USG FLEX is running old 5.0 firmware after the Nebula revision:
Customer cannot see the usage report of (1) client, (2) port, and (3) application, when the USG FLEX running old 5.0 firmware. This problem can be solved by upgrading to the new 5.1 firmware. Finally, on 4/Oct, Zyxel will trigger firmware upgrade to those Nebula-managed USG FLEX still running old 5.0 firmware. About "data counter reset" after the new Nebula revision on 27/Sep 1.
