Hi all,
I may be late to the party here, but its the first I've heard of this and thought I would post in case anyone else wasn't aware.
There is an internal security certificate on MiVoice Business systems which is due to expire on August 21, 2020. This affects
all MiVoice Business systems running anything from release 5.0 up until release 9.0 SP2.
Before this date, any MiVB system which meets the above will either need to be patched or upgraded. Mitel's official advice is that if the patch or R9.0SP3 is not installed, on or after Aug 21st 2020 the systems will go into license violation, which after 3 weeks will then be service affecting.
They have released advice and patches which will differ between systems for example:
• 3300 Controllers (e.g. AX, CX, LX, MXe)
• Virtual, MiVoice Business Express, ISS, MXe Server and Stratus
• MiCD
Here is a link if you need to read more about it - along with the process to patch the systems:
https://www.mitel.com/articles/mivoice-business-security-certificate-requirementPB2019Sept1E - MiVoice Business Security Certificate Update - Revision 1.pdf - is also available via Mitels Infochannel which includes a full description of this.
Systems dont need to be in SWAS for this patch. Luckily it can be installed in about 5 minutes!
At least we have plenty of time to prepare..
Thanks
