Question
Is MAC address connection (Device Layer) end-of-life (EOL)?
Answer
Starting from July 2024, it will not be possible to commission new devices via MAC address (Device Layer). Running devices remain untouched until end of life of Device Layer, but new commissioning will be only possible with Remote Portal devices from then on. The support of devices connected via MAC address (Device Layer) will be fully stopped and set to end of life 30th of June 2025. Please make sure that all your devices are migrated to Bosch Remote Portal (Video Relay; requires firmware 6.40 or newer) during this one year transition period. For more information, please contact your local sales representative.
