Major Upgrades

It is considered a major upgrade when changing to a full release version or a major point release (e.g., v1 to v2 or v2.2 to v2.3). Please note that major upgrades require service interruption.


Minor Upgrades

It is considered a minor upgrade when moving, for example, from upgrading a minor point release (e.g., v2.3.1 to v2.3.2). Minor upgrades can be done without service interruption if the system is HA.


License Upgrades

A license upgrade activates new functionality or capacity in the system. Example of license upgrades include adding SS7 signalling or unlocking additional IVR capabilities.


System Reconfiguration
