Issue/Introduction

Do we know the end of life support for SiteMinder and Access Gateway on RHEL7? 

We are wondering if RHEL 7 will be supported through 2026.

Environment

12.8.x 

Resolution

Couple of things will dictate the support 

1) being the AG version itself if it is supported or not , you can see the EOS for the AG for each release in the link below

2) for the OS itself , please refer to section "6.4 Third-Party Products End of Support Statement" page 18 in the link below

Also From the link below “Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 7 delivers ten years of support in Full Support, Maintenance Support 1 and Maintenance Support 2 Phases followed by an Extended Life Phase. “

Here is an illustration: 

- RHEL 7 was released June 10, 2014.   It will reach end of maintenance support 2 on June 30, 2024.   

- At that point it would be supported by Broadcom consistent with the Reasonable Commercial Effort statement that appears in section 6.3 of our published matrix.
