What is the default Flow Control behavior?

It is default disabled on our current switch models (at least on versions 1.0u/2.1s).

Why is Alta pushing firmware updates upon Alta Control units that have automatic updates settings set to off. I find this a bit disturbing. It is up to me as the end user to update any devices on the network I deem fit, especially a locally managed network, not Alta.

Hmm, that sounds like unintentional behaviour. Disabled is supposed to be respected. This is the hardware Control and not a container installation, correct?

This is the Alta Hardware Control.

Additionally, the LED color on the Alta Control continues to reset to Aqua after each reboot. Clearly a bug.

I agree with the LED color bug. However, I have not ever seen it auto update when that is disabled. That one seems like it warrants further investigation.

I saw the docker controller update when auto updates were disabled too.

Mike, I apologize for being blunt, but whether it’s unintentional or not, it shouldn’t have happen.
