FlexEdge 4G Cellular Sled

Use Case
Updating a FlexEdge to Crimson 3.2 build 3.2.0043.0 or later
Description
Some 4G devices may be impacted by the shutdown of AT&T’s 3G network. These devices are FlexEdge controllers configured as AT&T 4G enabled devices and the associated FlexEdge cellular sleds. Red Lion Sixnet SN and RAM products are not affected. The modems in the 4G FlexEdge devices may have a default setting that selects a voice access method that will not be available with the removal of 3G service, preventing registration of the device. Not all of the modems are affected but to err on the side of caution, Red Lion recommends updating all such FlexEdge devices to Crimson 3.2 build 3.2.0043.0 or later. This build updates the default setting of the FlexEdge 4G devices to data-centric mode to ensure that there will be no registration issues or loss of connectivity when AT&T’s 3G network is shut down. Please update devices as soon as possible to maintain connectivity.
