Netgate APU2/APU4 — End-of-Life & EOSL Dates
APU2/APU4 — end-of-sale and end-of-life dates as published by Netgate on its Product Lifecycle page.
Every tracked Netgate APU2/APU4 SKU group is past Netgate end of service life (last group May 2016). Units in production should be treated as unsupported. For past-EOSL units, weigh third-party maintenance, spares, replacement, or a documented run-to-failure. Netgate’s named migration path: SG-3100.

Options from here
The Netgate APU2/APU4 is past Netgate end of service life. These are the paths teams take from here:
Keep it in production past the OEM cutoff with an independent maintainer.
Buy spares now, while units still circulate on the secondary market.
It is unsupported today. Set a migration timeline and budget.
Low-criticality role: document the risk, harden backups, retire on your terms.
Independent and informational. EOSL.ai sells no hardware and no maintenance, and lists no paid placements. Third-party maintenance keeps unsupported gear in production past the OEM cutoff; whether it fits depends on the role the asset plays.
