Known Issues and Obsolescence

End of Life for Freewill AzenQos AZL export


• Advance notice is given that from the end of September 2020, Actix Analyzer shall
no longer support the Freewill AzenQos AZL export format. Support shall be
limited to the native AZM format (raw and pre-processed).

End of Life for previous versions


• With the recent addition of both 5G NSA NR and 5G SA NR, and in response to
many collection tools having released new versions to support NR technologies,
the complexity of maintaining support for all previous versions of Analyzer has
increased. Therefore with immediate effect, the versions of Actix Analyzer
supported by the Analyzer Product Support team shall be limited to the current
