{#Unique_ID_UPPAK_SupportTable}

### Important Notes for R82.10 (apply to Quantum Force and Quantum LightSpeed models) {#TOC02}

* Quantum Force 3980, 3970, 3950, 3920 appliances do not support Maestro configuration

### Important Notes for R82 (apply to Quantum Force and Quantum LightSpeed models) {#TOC03}

* R82 ElasticXL and R82 VSNext do not support SecureXL in the User Mode (UPPAK).  
  Support for the UPPAK mode in ElasticXL and VSNext in planned for one of R82 Jumbo Hotfix Accumulator Takes.  
  See the [LightSpeed 10/25/40/100G QSFP28 Ports Administration Guide](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/Appliances/100G_Ports_AdminGuide/Default.htm) \> Section "Known Limitations".
* If you upgrade a Maestro Security Group from R81.10 / R81.20 with SecureXL working in the User Mode (UPPAK) to R82, then the SecureXL will run in the Kernel Mode (KPPAK). To continue operating in UPPAK mode in Maestro, please upgrade to R82.10 (Known Limitation MBS-17283).

### Important Notes for R81.20 (apply to Quantum Force and Quantum LightSpeed models) {#TOC04}

* By default, Quantum Force Appliances (9100, 9200, 9300, 9400 9700, 9800, 19100, 19200, 29100 and 29200) will run SecureXL in the User Mode (UPPAK) when the appliance runs the R81.20 Factory Image or the R81.20 Jumbo Hotfix. An exception to UPPAK default operation is for standalone mode operation, which is supported on the 9000 Appliances.
* By default, Quantum LightSpeed QLS appliances without the R81.20 Jumbo Hotfix will run SecureXL in the Kernel Mode (KPPAK).
* By default, Quantum LightSpeed Appliances with the R81.20 Jumbo Hotfix installed will run SecureXL in the User Mode (UPPAK), unless you enabled a feature that does not support the SecureXL UPPAK mode.
* For instructions to change the SecureXL mode between KPPAK and UPPAK, see the [LightSpeed 10/25/40/100G QSFP28 Ports Administration Guide](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/Appliances/100G_Ports_AdminGuide/Default.htm) \> Section "Configuring SecureXL".
* See the [LightSpeed 10/25/40/100G QSFP28 Ports Administration Guide](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/Appliances/100G_Ports_AdminGuide/Default.htm) \> Section "Known Limitations".

### Important Notes for R81.10 (apply only to the LightSpeed QLS models) {#TOC05}

* It is **not** supported to uninstall the Jumbo Hotfix from a Quantum LightSpeed appliance and reboot. You can only install a higher Take of the Jumbo Hotfix Accumulator.
* For instructions to enable the SecureXL User Mode (UPPAK), see the [LightSpeed 10/25/40/100G QSFP28 Ports Administration Guide](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/Appliances/100G_Ports_AdminGuide/Default.htm) \> Section "Configuring SecureXL".
* See the Known Limitations in the [LightSpeed 10/25/40/100G QSFP28 Ports Administration Guide](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/Appliances/100G_Ports_AdminGuide/Default.htm) \> Section "Known Limitations".

**Notes:**

1. All DDoS features (SecureXL rate limiting, SecureXL penalty box, SecureXL deny list) are limitations in the UPPAK mode. IoC feeds are also not supported in the UPPAK mode. For more information, see [LightSpeed 10/25/40/100G QSFP28 Ports Administration Guide](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/Appliances/100G_Ports_AdminGuide/Default.htm) \> Known Limitations.

2. The limitation for the SecureXL UPPAK mode when **no** Acceleration Card is installed has been resolved in R81.20 Jumbo Hotfix Accumulator Take 70 and in the R82 release. The limitation still applies when the Acceleration card is installed.  

3. SecureXL UPPAK mode does not support Cluster in these modes:
   * ClusterXL Load Sharing (Unicast and Multicast) (Resolved in R82)
   * ClusterXL Active-Active (Resolved in R82)
   * ClusterXL Active/Active Bridge Mode (Resolved in R82)
   * Multi-Version Cluster (MVC) (Resolved in R81.20 take 96 or higher)
   * VRRP Cluster (Resolved in R82)
   * ElasticXL (new in R82 for KPPAK only, UPPAK is supported starting in R82.10)
4. BFD is first supported in R81.20 take 111
