Instructions

Dell Technologies understands that our customers may not have the option of upgrading to Dell Networking Operating Systems versions that are based on newer Debian releases. To ensure we can meet the needs of customers that are not yet able to update, Dell continues to provide vulnerability remediation for Long-term support (LTS) versions of OS10 and eSONiC, using Extended Long-Term Support for Debian 10 and Dell-provided backporting of important vulnerability updates as required.

Dell Technologies also understands that some of our customers may update to meet their requirements, as security vulnerability scans may alert that Debian Version 10 is past LTS. To ensure we meet the needs of customers ready to update, Dell is releasing OS10 and eSONiC distributions that are based on recent Debian releases:

  • OS 10.6.0.0

  • eSONiC 4.4.0
