RSA-4122/4122W Rev1 Firmware release notes


Notes:

1. RSA-4122 and RSA-4122W hardware using a Rev2.0 4x22-A1 add-on boards must use firmware releases starting from 1344.
   RSA-4122 and RSA-4122W hardware using a Rev2.1 4x22-A1 add-on boards must use firmware releases starting from 1426.

2. Rolling back to firmware versions before version 4.06L.02-1202 may cause a fallback to the factory default settings.
