Selected Answer: C
C. From the CompTIA study guide: End of life - while the equipment or device is no longer sold, it remains supported. End of support - the last date on which the vendor will provide support and/or updates. I'm confused.

Selected Answer: C
C. End of Support End of support (EOS) - The Date when the manufacturer will stop providing all support services for a product, including updates, patches, and fixes. After this date, the product may still function, but it will no longer receive any new support. End of life (EOL) - The date when a product or product line will no longer be sold or renewed. The manufacturer may still provide some support, such as security patches.

C. EOS End of life (EOL): This is the date after which a product will no longer be sold or renewed. However, it might still receive some form of support, such as security patches. End of support (EOS): This date marks the complete cessation of all support services for the product.

Selected Answer: D
D. End of life End of life (EOL) refers to a product (in this case, a legacy device) that is no longer being actively sold, supported, or maintained by the manufacturer. When a device reaches its EOL, it stops receiving updates, patches, and technical support. This often happens after the manufacturer has decided to discontinue the product, and it marks the point at which the device is considered obsolete in terms of official support.

EOL - End of Life The date after which a product is no longer sold, developed, or advertised by the manufacturer. The product may still receive some support, like security patches. EOS - End of Support The date after which the manufacturer stops providing technical support and updates for a product. The product may still function, but it's no longer serviced or supported.

Key word: DECOMMISSIONED It's clearly EOL, if it was EOS it would simply not get updates but continue to be in use.

It is legacy equipment, so it's already EOL. They make sure to mention that it's no longer receiving patches, so it should be EOS.

Selected Answer: C
End of Life (EOL) comes before End of Support (EOS). End of Life (EOL): This is the stage when a product is no longer sold or renewed by the manufacturer. While the product may still receive some limited support, such as critical security patches, it is essentially being phased out1. End of Support (EOS): This marks the complete cessation of all support services for the product. After this date, the product will no longer receive any updates, patches, or technical support1.
