No longer getting updates for Firepower

Hi, not sure what's going on, but it looks like the Firepower is no longer getting updated automatically. I am running ASA5525. The software version of Firepower is 6.1.07

Not sure if your problem is related to this, but 6.1 is far beyond End of SW Maintenance and should not be used any more. And with being dependant on cloud services, I would not expect it any more for get any updates.

Before digging deeper I would first update the box.

Yep. I suspected that I will no longer be getting any updates because the software version I am running is end of SW maintenance. But I just need somebody to confirm that. I also need a recommendation or a solution to this problem. Please advise. Thanks

As you shouldn't run unsupported software on a security device anyhow, the logical steps would be to upgrade and to see if that fixes the problem.

Yeah, but what do I need to upgrade? Do I need to upgrade the software if there is any or something else?
