HPE support for the HPE HP MSR20-1x, MSR900, and MSR920 Router Series ended Dec 2020 — unsupported units need a plan. HPE's own end-of-life bulletin names the successor below — quoted from the source, with the successor's live support status where EOSL.ai tracks it.

Migration questions
What is the replacement for the HPE HP MSR20-1x, MSR900, and MSR920 Router Series?
HPE's end-of-life bulletin names JG516A as the recommended migration path for the HPE HP MSR20-1x, MSR900, and MSR920 Router Series. The exact wording and any per-part-number mapping are in the linked bulletin.
Is the HPE HP MSR20-1x, MSR900, and MSR920 Router Series end of life?
HPE support for the HPE HP MSR20-1x, MSR900, and MSR920 Router Series ended Dec 2020 — unsupported units need a plan. Full lifecycle dates by part number: https://eosl.ai/system/hpe-msr20-1x-msr900-and-msr920-router-series/.
Is there a per-part-number replacement mapping for the MSR20-1x, MSR900, and MSR920 Router Series?
Yes — the bulletin maps replacements at the part-number level for 12 SKUs (for example JF240A → JG516A). The full table is on this page.
Do I have to buy the HPE-recommended replacement?
No. The bulletin's named successor is HPE's suggested path, not an obligation. Teams also keep MSR20-1x, MSR900, and MSR920 Router Series units running under third-party maintenance after the support cutoff, migrate to a different vendor, or run low-criticality units to failure with the risk documented. See the support-options guide for the trade-offs.
