Title Support of SMB ver2.0 (SMBv2) - Office A3 Products

Language English

Release date 2017-08-11

Description

Background:

Microsoft recommended the invalidation of SMB Ver1.0 in order to cope


with the Ransomware (WannaCry) issues.

Whilst the newer 'IT5" A3 Office Products (7&8 Series) support SMBv2 as
standard (and even SMBv3 is available) the older 4e Series and 4 Series
products only supported SMBv1. However, support for SMBv2 on these
older products is now available as follows:

SMBv2 is only available by installing the latest Special “Version Up”

this firmware in special circumstances when the customer is specifically
requesting special features (Like SMBv2, Google Cloud Print, Scan to
Gmail etc)

The Version Up firmware is available in DLGB1514243EN - Please ensure


you read and fully understand the Installation instructions and precautions
before installing this firmware, once installed do not attempt to install any
normal mass production firmware, without following the special downgrade
procedures.
