can use with the supported devices. When Security Manager supports a specific point release, it means
that you can configure some features new to that release using the product.
Some point releases are supported in “downward compatibility mode.” In this mode, you can use the
product to configure devices running that point release, but you cannot configure features that are new
in the release unless you use FlexConfigs. Thus, the point release is treated as being the same as the
nearest point release to it, and Security Manager maps the release number to that supported release.
